update checkpatch.pl to version 0.19
This version is a bit of a whopper. This version brings a few new checks,
improvements to a number of checks mostly through modifications to the
way types are parsed, several fixes to quote/comment handling, as well as
the usual slew of fixes for false positives.
Of note:
- return is not a function and is now reported,
- preprocessor directive detection is loosened to match C99 standard,
- we now intuit new type modifiers, and
- comment handling is much improved
