[PATCH v2] devtools: check patch from stdin only if nothing else

[Thomas Monjalon]

From: Ali Alnubani <alialnu at nvidia.com>

The checkpatches.sh script was checking if stdin is a terminal before
honoring the -n flag, causing it to incorrectly attempt to read patches
from stdin when run without a TTY (e.g., in Jenkins/CI pipelines).

Reorder the conditionals to check for the -n and -r flags
before checking stdin state.
This ensures the -n/-r flags takes precedence
and the script checks git commits as intended.
