As part of memory barrier cleanup, this patchset
extends checkpatch to make it easier to stop
incorrect memory barrier usage.

This replaces the checkpatch patches in my series
	arch: barrier cleanup + barriers for virt
and will be included in the pull request including
the series.

changes from v3:
	rename smp_barrier_stems to barrier_stems
	as suggested by Julian Calaby.
	add (?: ... ) around a variable in regexp,
	in case we change the value later so that it matters.
changes from v2:
	address comments by Joe Perches:
	use (?: ... ) to avoid unnecessary capture groups
	rename smp_barriers to smp_barrier_stems for clarity
	add barriers before/after atomic
Changes from v1:
	catch optional\s* before () in barriers
	rewrite using qr{} instead of map
