RE: [PATCH 1/1] scripts/checkpatch.pl: remove warning for pritk_deferred also

sent V2 patch with testing basic checks:

https://lkml.org/lkml/2021/9/7/329

$ cat test.c


printk_deferred(KERN_ALERT "checking deferred\n");
printk_deferred_once(KERN_ALERT "checking deferred\n");
printk(KERN_ERR"error");
pr_emerg("Protocol: %#06hx\n", ntohs(eth->h_proto));
printk_deferred(KERN_ALERT "Protocol: %#06hx\n", ntohs(eth->h_proto));



WARNING: Prefer [subsystem eg: netdev]_err([subsystem]dev, ... then dev_err(dev, ... then pr_err(...  to printk(KERN_ERR ...
