This is incoming in just a moment (though I only v2 patches in the
series I've changed which I think is the right way to make
modifications with a patch series.)

I will update the messages in the changed patches accordingly, I'm not
sure this is worth a resend of all previous patches for however? I do
see quite a few patches in the log that exceed this.

Additionally, I suspect it would make the patches less readable to
wrap sparse warning lines so I think those ought to sit outside of
this limit.

I am more than happy to change these though if these ought to be kept
*strictly* to a 72 character limit throughout?

Best,
