Generally good patch - it is more consistent to have --checkpatch
similarly to other checkers. Checkpatch is, after all, also a checker,
so why is it special?

However, I am concerned about the fact that if I want checkpatch, and I
somehow screwed up my tree kernel tree, and it is not in there, aiaiai
will silently proceed instead of loudly failing and telling me that I am
doing something wrong.

IOW, I suggest to fail if --checkpatch option is given, but the script
is absent in the source tree. The help message may mention that this is
a kernel-specific checker.
