Subject: [PATCH] checkpatch: Enable whitespace checks for DTS files

When run on *.dtsi or *.dts files, the whitespace checks were skipped,
while they are valid for DTS files. Hence stop skipping them.

I ran checkpatch on all in-tree DTS files, and didn't notice any error or
warning messages that are inappropriate for DTS files.

I think it is this one here which lets the white space checks happen for
your new file types ...

... so I am supprised to see you also changing this one. Is there a
check below here you wanted other than those stated in the patch
commentary?

No, e.g. "check for space before tabs" (the one that triggered me) is below.
