80 is still the *preferred* limit.  See Documentation/process/coding-style.rst:

	The preferred limit on the length of a single line is 80 columns.                
											 
	Statements longer than 80 columns should be broken into sensible chunks,
	unless exceeding 80 columns significantly increases readability and does
	not hide information.                                                            

Also, to avoid churn, patches that just change whitespace generally aren't
accepted, unless they are changing the relevant code anyway.
