Documentation: checkpatch: Tweak BIT() macro include While include/linux/bitops.h brings in the BIT() macro, it was moved to include/linux/bits.h in commit 8bd9cb51daac ("locking/atomics, asm-generic: Move some macros from <linux/bitops.h> to a new <linux/bits.h> file"). Since that commit BIT() has moved again into include/vdso/bits.h via commit 3945ff37d2f4 ("linux/bits.h: Extract common header for vDSO"). I think the move to the vDSO header can be considered an implementation detail, so for now update the checkpatch documentation to recommend use of include/linux/bits.h.
