Hi Kaixu,

it seems this time all the Cc's worked. One thing I just noticed is that
you confused the 'Signed-off-by' lines. I did look at the patch earlier
before you sent it out but unfortunately missed that.

You can read again in Documentation/SubmittingPatches about how
they work, but the short version is that you must never put someone
else's name in Signed-off-by under a patch you write yourself.
When we apply the patch, I (or whoever else does) will put that
line below yours to document who handled the patch.

Otherwise, the patch looks good to me, thanks a lot for doing it.

Arnd
