Some headers are included twice. Emit a warning when they occur.
For example:
$ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -f drivers/of/overlay.c
WARNING: Do not use #include <linux/string.h>, this header is already included
+#include <linux/string.h>

WARNING: Do not use #include <linux/string.h>, this header is already included
+#include <linux/string.h>

total: 0 errors, 4 warnings, 589 lines checked

There already is a script that looks for duplicate #include
uses so I think this isn't particularly useful or necessary.
see: scripts/checkincludes.h

Also, this doesn't work when reordering #include lines.
