Subject[PATCH] checkpatch: allow optional shorter config descriptions
Date
This script is used by many other projects, and in some of them the
requirement of at least 4 line long description for all Kconfig items
is excessive. This patch adds a command line option to control the
required minimum length.

Tested running this script over a patch including a two line config
description. The script generated a warning when invoked as is, and
did not generate it when invoked with --min-conf-desc-length=2.
