checkpatch.pl: check for the FSF mailing address
Kernel maintainers reject new instances of the GPL boilerplate paragraph directing people to write to the FSF for a copy of the GPL, since the FSF has moved in the past and may do so again. Make this an error for new code, but just a --strict CHK in --file mode; anyone interested in doing tree-wide cleanups of this form can enable this test explicitly.
