Following commit log would report git commit description style error.
Commit ee040cbd6e48 ("mm/page_alloc: don't warn about large allocations
with __GFP_NOFAIL") remove a warning on allocating large folio with
__GFP_NOFAIL, which was placed there by commit 903edea6c53f ("mm: warn
about illegal __GFP_NOFAIL usage in a more appropriate location and
manner").
Because the second commit description spans 3 lines.
While in commit 4ce9f9704578 ("checkpatch: improve GIT_COMMIT_ID test"), it
says it check commit description "for a maximum of 3 consecutive lines".
Add the missing iteration.
