Subject: [PATCH v1] checkpatch: Skip "From" tag from 75 character limit enforcement

From: Kuppuswamy Sathyanarayanan <sathyanarayanan.kuppuswamy@...el.com>

Currently, checkpatch script skips tags like "Fixes", "Link" and
"$signature_tags" when enforcing the 75 character limit in the commit
log. But it is missing the "From" tag in the skip list. So if a commit
log includes a "From:" tag with a long name or email, it reports a
false warning message.

To avoid this issue, include the "From" tag in the 75 character limit
enforcement skip list.
