Subject: checkpatch: reduce git commit description style false positives
Some lines in a commit log appear to be commit SHA1 ids like:
ERROR: Please use git commit description style 'commit <12+ chars of sha1>
("<title line>")' - ie: 'commit 0123456789ab ("commit description")'

Reduce the false positives.

WARNING: Possible unwrapped commit description (prefer a maximum 75 chars per
line)
#6:
ERROR: Please use git commit description style 'commit <12+ chars of sha1>
("<title line>")' - ie: 'commit 0123456789ab ("commit description")'
Perhaps we could special-case the "unwrapped commit description" as
well - the Link: lines are almost always too wide.
