I cloned  https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net.git  and   ./scripts/checkpatch.pl --strict  --codespell --patch <patchname> is not showing these errors/warnings.  
Could you please help in understanding why this restriction is removed in checkpatch.pl and kept in patchwork script ?. 
Is it mandatory to fix these  ? ASFAIK, 80 lines restriction is old one when screen size were small.
