Documentation/CodingStyle: Fix duplicate "are" typo
The improved paragraph about line lengths contains a sentence with a duplicate word: there is one "are" at the end of a line, followed by a second one at the beginning of the next line. Drop the first one, as that one is part of the longest line. Fixes: bdc48fa11e46f867 ("checkpatch/coding-style: deprecate 80-column warning") Signed-off-by: Geert Uytterhoeven <geert@linux-m68k.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
