Subject: [PATCH] contrib/checkpatch: allow empty lines within continuations

This chunk from nm-device.c is, in fact, okay:

               |<-tab->nm_assert (   !new_config
               |<-tab->           || (   new_config
               |<-tab->               && ({
               |<-tab->                    int ip_ifindex = ...
 empty line -> |
               |<-tab->                    (   ip_ifindex > 0
               |<-tab->                     && ip_ifindex == ...
               |<-tab->                  })));
