Thank you for updating the pull request.
Tested locally. Using the changes in the pull request I get the same result
as we get when the settings are in the Maven settings.
Commenting out the suppression filter in the checkstyle configuration, the
report in the web site now gives me **2828** errors. So the suppression filter
is working indeed.
Looks good to me, merging it now.---
