Subject: [PATCH] checkpatch: Fix warnings when --no-tree is used

When users run checkpatch.pl with --no-tree option, $root is not
defined, which causes an ugly warning that it is not initialized at
line 764.  The test for whether or not a file is maintained should
only be run when a kernel tree is defined (i.e. not when --no-tree
option is being used)
