I saw that netdevbpf patchwork is configured for 80 cols and it has
warnings for v4 of this patch [1], so I've already re-wrapped the
changes in this series to 80 cols (excluding a couple of lines where
using slightly more than 80 cols significantly improves readability).
I'm planning to send that in the next hour or so, assuming my tests
pass.
