I'm aware of that and main cause is it creates unnecessary breaking 
which can lead to bugs, hard to read code and ugly wrapped code. I think
this case is different with printing message which is straight forward 
to read and not going to introduce any bugs in actual logic.

Based on your earlier reply about splitting printk I'll let Christoph
and Sagi decide on what to do about this and whether to enforce strict
80 lines or not for NVMe subsystem for printing messages and for future
code.
