Well, I have fun with checkpatch :-(.

pavel@amd:/data/l/linux/Documentation$ ../scripts/checkpatch.pl
hwmon/hpfall.c
ERROR: Does not appear to be a unified-diff format patch

total: 1 errors, 0 warnings, 0 lines checked

hwmon/hpfall.c has style problems, please review.  If any of these
errors
are false positives report them to the maintainer, see
CHECKPATCH in MAINTAINERS.

I tried checkpatch-ing a file, and not only my attempts to use it
failed, my attempts to get help failed too.

pavel@amd:/data/l/linux/Documentation$ ../scripts/checkpatch.pl hwmon/hpfall.c
ERROR: Does not appear to be a unified-diff format patch

pavel@amd:/data/l/linux/Documentation$ ../scripts/checkpatch.pl --help
Unknown option: help

Make -f alias of --file, and print help if user passes unknown option.
