ACRN hypervisor follows MISRA-C which has some inconsistencies with the Linux
kernel coding style. Namely,
* Braces are required even for single-statement blocks.
* Zero-initialisers to global variables are allowed.
* Line limit is 120 instead of 80.
This patch adds a .checkpatch.conf so that checkpatch.pl stops warning on the
exceptions above when invoked under the root directory of the acrn-hypervisor
repository.
The coding style documentation is updated accordingly.
