I'm not aware of a formal policy, but I do prefer kernel.org links
because github is a 3rd party company that may not persist, may add
ads, etc.  I know github may *also* add value like fancier markup,
cross referencing, CI services, etc., but for commit logs, the
longevity of kernel.org is pretty persuasive to me.

There's a similar situation with mailing lists where many of the old
links to archives like marc.info, spinics.net, lkml.org, etc., are now
dead or not as useful for building tools (b4, for instance).

So no big deal, but I would probably silently convert them when
applying.  The current formats I use are:

  commits: https://git.kernel.org/linus/dff6139015dc
  files:   https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/drivers/pci/pci-acpi.c?id=v6.0#n976
