The 'continue' statement is not always without effect. On my machine
(but it looks it's not the same everywhere):
- with dash, the 'continue' acts like a return in that case
- with bash, it displays an error:
"continue: only meaningful in a `for', `while', or `until' loop"
- with bash --posix, the 'continue' is ignored...
In my case, checkpatches.sh was displaying "0/1 valid" although there
was no error. This patch solves the issue, thanks.
