Thanks Greg for accepting the patch.

/scripts/checkpatch.pl confuse developers, as it gives error/warning
if we use full git id.

Example:
ERROR: Please use git commit description style 'commit <12+ chars of
sha1> ("<title line>")' - ie: 'commit e26d3009efda ("netfilter:
nf_tables: disallow timeout for anonymous sets")'
#6:
commit e26d3009efda338f19016df4175f354a9bd0a4ab upstream.

Or shall we have something ./scripts/checkpatchstable.pl or
/scripts/checkpatch.pl stable (pass argument)?
