This seems to have been cleared in a different comment: the check is C++-only.

Since the check is using a list of extensions to figure out, if a file is a header, it's not overly important to actually add a separate file that includes this one. And there's a certain benefit in convenience of not doing so (it's nice when CHECK-... and RUN: directives just work).  At least one more check - misc-definitions-in-headers - does it the same way.
