The kernel hard limit is 100-character lines, not 80-character lines.
Maintainers for existing drivers are certainly free to stick to 80 chars
if they like it that way, but I don't see why we should still be
enforcing that for new code. See bdc48fa11e46.

And also:

Quoth Torvalds, addressing you personally:

"If you or Christoph have 80 character lines, you'll get possibly ugly
wrapped output. Tough. That's _your_ choice. Your hardware limitations
shouldn't be a pain for the rest of us."
