checkpatch: add hwaddr to @typeList
The script doesn't know about all possible types and learn them as it parses the code. If it reaches a line with a type cast but the type isn't known yet, it is misinterpreted as an identifier. For example the following line: foo = (hwaddr) -1; results in the following false-positive to be reported: ERROR: spaces required around that '-' (ctx:VxV) Let's add this standard QEMU type to the list of pre-known types.
