Taylor Nelms f758440d3d checkpatch: exclude forward declarations of const structs ...

Limit checkpatch warnings for normally-const structs by excluding patterns
consistent with forward declarations.

For example, the forward declaration `struct regmap_access_table;` in a
header file currently generates a warning recommending that it is
generally declared as const; however, this would apply a useless type
qualifier in the empty declaration `const struct regmap_access_table;`,
and subsequently generate compiler warnings.
