Oh. That's right.
It can be aware of that.

I just want to make the code easy to read and limit the textwidth to
80 character.

If the message takes two lines as bellow,
    printk("xxx "
                     ^ space character.
              "yyy");
The checkpatch.pl  could also be aware of that if the first line is
not end with space character, but it couldn't be aware of that if run
with "checkpatch.pl -f xxxx.patch".
