Subject: [PATCH v2] scripts: Move ipc/ to kernel/ipc/: don't check the ipc dir

After the commit 76128326f97c ("toplevel: Move ipc/ to kernel/ipc/: move
the files"), we met some error messages:

./scripts/checkpatch.pl:
"Must be run from the top-level dir. of a kernel tree"

./scripts/get_maintainer.pl:
"The current directory does not appear to be a linux kernel source tree.

Don't check the ipc dir in checkpatch.pl and get_maintainer.pl.
