checkpatch: ignore existing CamelCase uses from include/...
When using --strict, CamelCase uses are described with CHECK: messages.
These CamelCase uses may be acceptable and should not generate these
messages when the variable is already defined in a file from the
include/... path.
So, change checkpatch to read all the .h files in include/... and look
for preexisting CamelCase #defines, typedefs and function prototypes.
Add these to the existing camelcase hash so that any uses in the patch or
file can be ignored.
There are currently ~3500 files in include/. It takes about 10 cpu
seconds on my little netbook to grep for and preseed these existing uses.
That's about 4x the time for a similar git grep.
This preseeding is only done once when using --strict and only when there
is a CamelCase use found.
If a .git directory is found, it uses 'git ls-files include' If not, it
uses 'find $root/include -name "*.h"
