[PATCH] reformat_with_checkpatch: Add automation to checkpatch

A simple script to run checkpatch --fix for various types of
of cleanups.

This script is useful primarily for staging.

This reformats code to a more CodingStyle conforming style,
compiles it, verifies that the object code hasn't changed,
and git commits it too.

You must have the necessary development tools, git, and a
recent git tree.  Ideally use Greg KH's staging-next, which
can be retrieved via these commands:

git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git
git checkout staging-next

To use this script try a sequence of commands like:

	cd <linux_repository>
	git checkout -b <your_branch>
	make allyesconfig
	mkdir patches
	./scripts/reformat_with_checkpatch.sh drivers/staging/<dir>/*.[ch]
	git format-patch --cover-letter -o patches/<your_branch> staging-next
	git send-email patches/<your_branch>
