Subject[PATCH] checkpatch: Allow space leading blank lines in email headers
Date
Allow a leading space and otherwise blank link in the email headers
as it can be a line wrapped Spamassassin multiple line string or any
other valid rfc 2822/5322 email header.

The line with space causes checkpatch to erroniously think that it's
in the content body, as opposed to headers and thus flag a mail header
as an unwrapped long comment line.
