scripts/checkpatch.pl: Don't allow special cases of unspaced operators

The checkpatch.pl script has a special case to permit the following
operators to have no spaces around them:
 <<  >>  &  ^  |  +  -  *  /  %

QEMU style prefers all operators to consistently have spacing around
them, so remove this special case handling. This avoids reviewers
having to manually note it during code review.
