checkpatch: Fix false DT_SPLIT_BINDING_PATCH warnings

Patches which both remove and add/modify DT binding files are incorrectly flagged as needing to split the patch. The issue is the check sees "dev/null" as one of the files in the patch which is not a DT binding file. Add "dev/null" to the skipped files.
