* checkpatch, SubmittingPatches: suggest line wrapping commit messages at 75 ↵Joe Perches2015-04-171-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | columns Commit messages lines are sometimes overly long. Suggest line wrapping at 75 columns so the default git commit log indentation of 4 plus the commit message text still fits on an 80 column screen.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | SubmittingPatches was written in the "keep sending to Linus until something shows up in a release" era.
