Subject: [PATCH 1/1] checkpatch: allow space between colon and bracket
Date:   Tue,  3 Apr 2018 21:16:55 +0200
Message-Id: <20180403191655.23700-1-xypron.glpk@gmx.de>
In-Reply-To: <20180403190214.23082-1-xypron.glpk@gmx.de>
References: <20180403190214.23082-1-xypron.glpk@gmx.de>
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

Allow a space between a colon and subsequent opening bracket.
This sequence may occur in inline assembler statements like

	asm(
		"ldr %[out], [%[in]]\n\t"
		: [out] "=r" (ret)
		: [in] "r" (addr)
	);
