Guys, so what is the current consensus on line length in the kernel? Coding style still says:The preferred limit on the length of a single line is 80 columns.This is not a hard limit and it may (or even must) be exceeded if there are good reasons. That's also mentioned in the document. But then I get a nitpick like this:It is still under the 100 character limit.Where does it come from? Should the coding style be updated?@corbet ?
