This drops the changes we have from f503cc49a570 which I think at this
point are the only changes we have, and also that (at the time) upstream
was uninterested in.  The quick way to be sure here would be to diff
6b9709d91488993a8d7945995778cc63a24065ef's checkpatch.pl with
v3.14-rc4's version.  Thanks!
