checkpatch: update git commit message

The git commit message can be confusing,

Try to clarify the message a bit to reduce the confusion when emitted.

Show the correct form using
	Please use git commit description style 'commit <12+ chars of sha1> ("<title line>")'
and if the git commit sha1 is unique, show
the right sha1 to use with the actual title
