Subject: [PATCH RESEND v2] scripts/checkpatch.pl: remove _deferred and
 _deferred_once false warning

Precedence: bulk

printk_deferred and printk_deferred_once requires LOGLEVEL in argument,
but checkpatch.pl reports it as warning:

WARNING: Possible unnecessary KERN_ALERT
printk_deferred(KERN_ALERT "checking deferred\n");

As suggested by Andy, made 2 functions from logFunction.

1. logFunction: with all checks
2. logFunctionCore: without printk(?:_ratelimited|_once|_deferred) checking

and call logFunctionCore instead of logFunction for checking of loglevel,
which will exclude checking of printk(?:_ratelimited|_once|_deferred).

This way, there is no need to maintain same stanza at  places for removing
printk flavours.

v1 -> v2: made 2 functions to remove _deferred and _deferred_once
	as suggested by Andy Whitcroft.
