We have a documented standard for this:
Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst:
The canonical patch format
--------------------------
- The body of the explanation, line wrapped at 75 columns, which will

Please follow it - it always bugs me when people randomly choose to
wrap at something alot less than 75 columns for some reason.
