Oh, I think I found the reason, it's my fault...

I used git send-email to send the patch set, git asked me:

        "Which 8bit encoding should I declare [UTF-8]?"

Then I pressed 'y' and hit 'Enter', thus, the header becomes:

        Content-Type: text/plain; charset=y

charset should be "UTF-8", not 'y'... I apologize for the mistake.

Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, have a nice day and give my best wishes
to you.

Thanks,
Andy
