Subject: [PATCH] checkpatch: update $allowed_asm_includes macros, add reboot.h and time.h

Several architectures (e.g. x86, MIPS, Blackfin) have asm/reboot.h and
asm/time.h header files, which are not included in linux/reboot.h and
linux/time.h headers. This lead to generation of false positive errors.
