Subject: [PATCH] checkpatch: do not exit in main process subroutine

Currently checkpatch program exit when process empty file,
This will cause issue when @ARGV include many files ready to check.

For example, there may have Module.symvers empty file in kernel directory.

[root@...i ~]# scripts/checkpatch.pl -f kernel/*

then many file "after" empty file will not be check by script.
so disallow exit in main process subroutine.
