checkpatch: ignore automatically imported Linux headers
Linux uses tabs for indentation and checkpatch always complained about automatically imported headers. update-linux-headers.sh could be modified to expand tabs, but there is no real reason to complain about any ugly code in Linux headers, so skip all hunk-related checks.
