Wrap all these commit logs to fill 75 columns.  No point in leaving
unused space when most things are formatted to fill 80ish columns or
more.

I think it might have been better if we could do the
regulator_bulk_get() separately, before pci_host_probe(), so that if 
this error happens, we can deal with it more easily.

Setting num_supplies = 0 is an unusual way of handling this error, and
if this pattern of managing PCIe regulators spreads to other drivers,
we might trip over this again.

Not asking for a redesign here, and maybe it wouldn't even be
possible, but it kind of fits with thinking about splitting Root Port
support from the Root Complex/host bridge support.
