tools check_headers.sh: Add check variant that excludes some hunks
With 6d74e1e3 ("tools/lib/list_sort: remove redundant code for cond_resched handling") we end up with a multi-line variation in the merge_final() implementation, one that the simple line based exceptions we had so far can't cope. Thus this check has been failing: Warning: Kernel ABI header differences: diff -u tools/lib/list_sort.c lib/list_sort.c So add a new check routine that uses grep -vf to exclude some hunks that we store in the tools/perf/check-header_ignore_hunks/ directory. This first patch is just the new check routine, the next one will use it to check lib/list_sort.c. Acked-by:Kuan-Wei Chiu <visitorckw@gmail.com> Acked-by:
