Currently checkpatch program exit when process empty file, This will cause issue when @ARGV include many files ready to check.
For example, there may have Module.symvers empty file in kernel directory. [root@jovi ~]# scripts/checkpatch.pl -f kernel/* then many file "after" empty file will not be check by script. so disallow exit in main process subroutine.
