[PATCH] Scripts: checkpatch.pl: Fix incorrect warning in multi-line seq_printf()

[Rashika Kheria <rashika.kheria@gmail.com>]

This patch fixes the following incorrect warning given by checkpatch.pl
in case of multi-line seq_printf() statements-

"WARNING: Prefer seq_puts to seq_printf"

The previous code block producing the above warning was evaluating on line
by line basis and hence was printing a warning if the format specifier
was absent in the first line.

In this patch, we maintain a state flag $is_seq_printf_block indicating
that the same seq_printf() statement is continuing in the next line and
throw a warning if no format specifier is found in any of the lines as
indicated by flag $has_format_specifier.
