Your version of scripts/checkpatch.pl seems outdated. It shouldn't
complain about strings violating 80-column limit (and I've just verified it
doesn't).

checkpatch complains about > 80 char lines for lines with
a function where the function name isn't understood to be
a logging use.

uspip_dbg_<foo> doesn't take the general form so if the
string at the EOL exceeds 80 chars, a message is emitted.

Long standalone strings on a single line do not get warnings.

OK, but there's still issue that the patch context doesn't correspond to what can be seen in Greg's tree. What I am seeing there is broken up string.

WBR, Sergei
