checkpatch: Accept form feeds.
CodingStyle.md says:
"Use form feeds (control+L) to divide long source files into logical
pieces. A form feed should appear as the only character on a line."
checkpatch.py currently complains about form feed. For example, on
commit
2c06d9a927c5("ovstest: Add test-netlink-conntrack command."),
checkpatch.py returns:
W(140): Line has non-spaces leading whitespace
W(140): Line has trailing whitespace
+
W(177): Line has non-spaces leading whitespace
W(177): Line has trailing whitespace
+
W(199): Line has non-spaces leading whitespace
W(199): Line has trailing whitespace
+
This commit suppresses the two warnings for lines with form feeds as the
only character.
