Umm, checkpatch already suggests to coalesce split strings. ie: WARNING: quoted string split across lines #850: FILE: arch/x86/kernel/hpet.c:850: + "HPET config register value = 0xFFFFFFFF. " + "Disabling HPET\n"); and checkpatch does the fixing using something like: $ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -f --fix-inplace --types=split_string arch/x86/kernel/hpet.c
