checkpatch: cuppress warnings when Reported-by: is followed by Link:

> The tag should be followed by a Closes: tag pointing to the report,
> unless the report is not available on the web. The Link: tag can be
> used instead of Closes: if the patch fixes a part of the issue(s)
> being reported.

According to Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst, Link: is also
acceptable to follow a Reported-by:, if the patch fixes a part of the
issue(s) being reported.
