checkpatch false ERROR: trailing statements should be on next line

Using v2.6.24-rc6-125-g5356f66, code such as this:

if (is_file) /* dirs can be unlinked but chdir'ed to */
err = -ESTALE;

produces this false checkpatch error:

foo.c:947: ERROR: trailing statements should be on next line

I think comments such as the above should be allowed (plus a comment isn't a
statement). It's often very useful to put them right on the affected line.

Thanks,
Erez.
