     checkpatch: relax spacing and line length

     We all had the arguments about 80 columns, so here goes a relax.
     Checking for 95 (or perhaps something better?), but of course we
     print "80" in the output, because if you happened to get to 95, it's
     "really time" to break it.

     This also relaxes the tab doctrine, because spaces DO make sense --
     especially when you view the code with a tab setting of not-8.
