Add an exception to the EMBEDDED_FILENAME warning for build files. This
fixes the below warnings where the Kconfig and Makefile files reference
other similarly named build files.

  WARNING:EMBEDDED_FILENAME: It's generally not useful to have the
  filename in the file
  #24: FILE: Kconfig:34:
  +source "drivers/willmcvicker/Kconfig"

  WARNING:EMBEDDED_FILENAME: It's generally not useful to have the
  filename in the file
  #36: FILE: Makefile:667:
  +	} > Makefile

No need to wrap here I think.

Align to open parenthesis please.
It's not useful to have .* before the /

So perhaps better to be

		if ($rawline =~ /^\+.*\b\Q$realfile\E\b/ &&
		    $realfile !~ /(?:Kconfig|Makefile)/) {

You're right. I'll update in v2.

I was following other references in this file, but looks like you're right that
it's not needed. Your recommendation passed the tests I have. So I'll update
the regex in v2.

Thanks,
