Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason sent a [atch to
Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst
for that .gitconfig default length problem last month.

Perhaps something will come of that one day.
It does seem that of the 30K or so commits with "Fixes:" that
the style has standardized on the typical form below where
12 ("") is a 12 char SHA1 and ("") is the commit description
21911 Fixes: 12 ("")
1151 Fixes: 13 ("")
1053 Fixes: 12 (')
541 Fixes: 16 ("")
325 Fixes: 10 ("")
323 Fixes: 40
274 Fixes:
272 Fixes: 12 ""
256 Fixes: 11 ("")
217 Fixes: 14 ("")
188 Fixes: commit 12 ("")
181 Fixes: 8 ("")
178 Fixes: 7 ("")
163 Fixes: 9 ("")
94 Fixes: 15 ("")
51 Fixes: 12("")
48 Fixes: 13 (')
38 Fixes: 12
35 Fixes: 12(')
34 Fixes: 40 ("")
30 Fixes: 12 (""
28 Fixes: 17 ("")
24 Fixes: Commit 12 ("")
So for checkpatch, maybe something like the below
would help standardize the Fixes line:
