Be careful with that script.  Some of it's recommendations are harmful,
for example when it sees an inclusion of <asm/time.h> it will suggest
to use <linux/time.h>.  That's all fine because generally the file under
linux/ will include the asm/ version but there are exception.

But it's great that you discovered it already, it saves me the for both
sides annoying part of dealing out tons of trivialities, first such as
formatting trivialities.  One thing checkpatch.pl doesn't yet complain
about is trailing whitespace such as in the first of the patches you
sent:

No need to resend the patch, I can strip that of trivially
