I tried this and still checkpatch failed. Below is the sequence.

- GitLab starts with a shallow fetch (depth=10).
- Script fetches full commit history (--unshallow --filter=blob:none). 
We need this to calculate the merge-base commit.
- Calculates how much history to fetch using the merge-base commit.
- Refetch with depth (--depth=N) until the merge-base commit
- checkpatch.pl fails because the earlier blobless fetch (--unshallow 
--filter=blob:none) skipped file contents.

Please see the commit and pipeline,
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/vigneshraman/linux/-/commit/40a3fc31c2405f90f3fc3177a575a66a10b33324
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/vigneshraman/linux/-/jobs/73884148

Looks like the reliable solution is to fully unshallow the repository 
(without any --filter) and set a 30m timeout? Would this be acceptable?
