No, it is not relevant. Just because tool is inefficient does not allow
you to point such nitpicks. You as reviewer are supposed to find
difference which checkpatch warnings are important and which are not and
DO NOT bother contributors with useless points that there is some
orphaned file according to checkpatch.

That would be great but, if no one does it your comments on "orphaned
file" are counter productive.
