[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 4/5] checkpatch: emit a warning on file add/move/delete

[Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>]

From: Joe Perches <joe@perches.com>

Whenever files are added, moved, or deleted, the MAINTAINERS file
patterns can be out of sync or outdated.

To try to keep MAINTAINERS more up-to-date, add a one-time warning
whenever a patch does any of those.
