Don't line up the <email@domain>, just put only one space, there are a
few hundred thousand examples to look at for the correct formatting :)

You forgot a "---" between the signed-off-by and the diffstat. If you
use either git or quilt, it will get this correct automagically. That
infers you used something else, which is quite scary. What are you
using instead to create patches?

Don't worry, I can edit this by hand when I apply it, and will do so in
a few days when I get to my "to-apply" queue, but in the future, please
don't do this.

thanks,
