Some of the src/vendorcode/ directories are used to import a whole
codebase from somewhere else which uses a completely different coding
style. For those directories, excluding them from checkpatch makes
sense. However, other directories are simply implementing
vendor-specific extensions that were written by coreboot developers
specifically for coreboot in coreboot's coding style. Those directories
should be covered by checkpatch.
This patch narrows the existing blanket exception of src/vendorcode/ to
the amd, cavium, intel and mediatek directories (which actually include
large amounts of foreign source). The eltan, google and siemens
directories (which seem to contain code specifically written for
coreboot) will now be covered by checkpatch.
