[PATCH] checkpatch: Fix NOT_UNIFIED_DIFF error exception

[Matthew R. Ochs]

Commit 06330fc40e3f ("checkpatch: Avoid NOT_UNIFIED_DIFF
errors on cover-letter.patch files") added an exception to bypass
the unified-diff check for cover letters. The patch evaluates the
cover letter regex against $file. Instead it should use $filename.

This patch corrects the variable.
