[PATCH] checkpatch: skip macros when finding missing switch/case break

[Cambda Zhu <cambda@linux.alibaba.com>]

The checkpatch.pl only searches 3 previous lines when finding missing
switch/case break, and macros are treated as normal statements. If the
cases are surrounded with CONFIG, checkpatch.pl may report false
warnings. For example:

\+#if xxx
\+	case xxx: {
\+		...
\+		break/return/...;
\+	}
\+#endif
\+#if xxx
\+	case xxx:
\+		...
\+#endif

This patch skips lines starting with whitespaces and #, so the counter
of previous statements won't increase in these cases.
