What do these signoffs mean?  Traditionally you sign off on a patch if
it passed through your hands, so if this is a patch from Vishnu which
you're sending in, they need to be in reverse order (and a From: for
Vishnu).

The second question is who picks this up?  The drivers/firmware
directory doesn't seem to have a dedicated tree, so I can take this
through the SCSI tree if required or Andrew can take it through -mm.
