Not necessarily a good plan...

Perhaps this description instead:

[PATCH] checkpatch.pl: Allow more printk types (<prefix>_<level>) to be > 80 cols

Previous behavior allowed only alphabetic prefixes
like pr_info to exceed the 80 column line length limit.

ath6kl wants to add a digit into the prefix, so allow
numbers as well as digits in the <prefix>_<level> printks.

<prefix>_<level>_ratelimited and <prefix>_<level>_once
and WARN_RATELIMIT and WARN_ONCE may now exceed 80 cols.

Add missing <prefix>_printk type for completeness.
