Perhaps:

Checkpatch emits CHECK: Alignment should match open parenthesis

Align code to open parenthesis.

Patch description should describe the problem then describe what the
patch does (in imperative mood).  Better advice is given in
Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst section 2

Hope this helps,
Tobin.
