Documentation/process/coding-style.rst still says:

"The preferred limit on the length of a single line is 80 columns."

checkpatch might not warn about > 80 columns anymore, but if the
file you are modifying is almost entirely 80 columns in width, then
by default changes to that file should also stay within 80 columns.

I mostly consider using checkpatch to enforce coding styles to be
harmful....

Cheers,
