No joy :(

Let's try another file:

$ git mv arch/x86/Kconfig{,.old}
$ git diff --cached HEAD -- | ./scripts/checkpatch.pl --strict -

Your patch has style problems, please review.

If any of these errors are false positives, please report
them to the maintainer, see CHECKPATCH in MAINTAINERS.

$ git commit -a
arch/x86/Kconfig.old:451: trailing whitespace.
+         Internet Device(MID) platform.
