Currently checkpatch warns when asm/file.h is included and linux/file.h
exists. That conversion can be made when linux/file.h includes asm/file.h
which is not always the case.(See signal.h)

V3:
        Only grep when $root/$checkfile exists (suggested by Joe Perches)
V2:
        Apply suggestions by Joe Perches:
        -Remove superfluous -i in grep
        -Use $root to make checkpatch callable from anywhere
        -Process all include cases.
