[PATCH] checkpatch: remove GCC_BINARY_CONSTANT warning

[Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@c-s.fr>]

This warning was there to avoid the use of 0bxxx values
as they are not supported by gcc prior to v4.3

Since commit cafa0010cd51f ("Raise the minimum required gcc
version to 4.6"), it's not an issue anymore and using
such values can increase readability of code.
