Heh, that was the original formatting until I asked him to change it:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/8/29/809.  Checkpatch throws an error if
there's a newline after 'Commit'.  Though looking at this again, there
shouldn't be a colon after 'Commit' and there should be quotes inside
the parentheses, e.g. this satisfies checkpatch:

Commit 368a540e0232 ("x86/kvmclock: Remove memblock dependency")
