Joe Perches 77b8c0a8e4 checkpatch: warn on const char foo[] = "bar"; declarations
These declarations should generally be static const to avoid poor
compilation and runtime performance where compilers tend to initialize
the const declaration for every call instead of using .rodata for the
string.

Miscellanea:

 - Convert spaces to tabs for indentation in 2 adjacent checks

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
