The NL_SET_ERR_MSG_MOD macro is used to report a string describing an error message to userspace via the netlink extended ACK structure. It should not have a trailing newline. Add a cocci script which catches cases where the newline marker is present. Using this script, fix the handful of cases which accidentally included a trailing new line. I couldn't figure out a way to get a patch mode working, so this script only implements context, report, and org.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
