all my patches have been like this way, and you have taken them before :)
the reason its like this way - (already discussed with Dan Carpenter, reference https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/9/3/473)

we have strict DMARC check for the corporate mail server. DMARC = domain based message authentication.
So the mail i sent reached all the list subscriber from a different server than our designated server,
and as a result it is marked as spam in many places and I have already received a few complaints regarding that.

so at https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/9/3/535 Dan said its ok for him, but depends on you if you want to accept.
And since you have accepted all my patches before so i thought it is ok with you.

if you want I can add an extra From: line, but Dan has already given his commments for that at https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/9/3/135
quoting him :

"If everyone starts using From headers like this then it becomes a pain to deal with."

please let me know how you want me to send the patches if different email address is a problem. I thought different name is a problem, but different email address???

just make W=1 will give these warnings.
