[PATCH] checkpatch.pl: Relax commit ID check to allow more than 12 chars

["Jonathan Neuschäfer" <j.neuschaefer@gmx.net>]

By now, `git log --pretty=%h` (on my copy of linux.git) prints commit
hashes with 13 digits, because of the number of objects.

Relax the rule in checkpatch.pl to allow a few more digits (up to 16).
