You could use these lines:
Fixes: 4bec48184e33 ("devtools: add checks for ABI symbol addition")
Reported-by: Cody Doucette <douce...@bu.edu>
> --- a/devtools/check-symbol-change.sh
> +++ b/devtools/check-symbol-change.sh
> - /[-+] a\/.*\.^(map)/ {in_map=0}
> + /[-+] a\/.*\.[^map]/ {in_map=0}
Not sure this is what you intend:
[^map] means any character except "m", "a" and "p".
I don't know whether awk supports this syntax: (?!foo)
