Another false positive in patches

Hi again,

Found another few things which are incorrectly reported as blobs by 
the latest deblob-check script, specifically from kernel.org's 
2.6.31.2 patchset.

Output of deblob-check -B

Again, if anyone could give a little advice on how best to add 
things like this to the script, i'd be very grateful (and you can 
expect patches). i'm currently maintaining builds for quite a few 
different linux libre based patchsets, so am likely to come up 
against the occasional false positive from different patches.

thanks again, i look forward to helping out more,

nick
