Subject: [PATCH] checkpatch: improve get_quoted_string for TRACE_EVENT macros
The get_quoted_string function does not expect invalid arguments.
The $stat test can return non-statements for complicated macros like
TRACE_EVENT.
Allow the $stat block and test for vsprintf misuses to exceed the actual
block length and possibly test invalid lines by validating the arguments
of get_quoted_string.
Return "" if either get_quoted_string argument is undefined.
Miscellanea:
o Properly align the comment for the vsprintf extension test
