[PATCH] v4l/scripts: Fix make checkpatch operation with in tree checkpatch.pl

[Andy Walls]

Mauro,

make checkpatch wasn't working for me.

I found that the new version of checkpatch.pl that's in the v4l/dvb tree
doesn't emit a version number unless explicitly requested.

This patch gets 'make checkpatch' working (and complaining again) for
me.

Regards,
Andy
