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

Anyway, try running this script on
drivers/staging/lustre/lnet/lnet/acceptor.c to see how this build fails.

lustre doesn't use "normal" kernel makefiles.

Well, it does, it just has a:
	subdir-ccflags-y := -I$(src)/include/
line in drivers/staging/lustre/Makefile that messes up making .o files
in subdirectories.

I'll go fix that include file mess up now to be able to remove that line
so the the .o file building will work.

thanks,
