Documentation: Remove mention of manual checkpatch.pl invocation
We typically call checkpatch.pl through make lint which properly adds
the option to tell checkpatch that our lines may be 96 columns long.
However there's one mention of calling checkpatch directly and that
confuses people with complaints about overly long lines that exceed
80 columns.
The lint test that runs checkpatch (and with the right options)
can also be used on a per-directory basis, so offer that instead.
