Hi, David

Jeff know what happened, he promised to add my and Flavio's
signed-off-by in the pre-mail.

It's easy to see from the mail that who is the author, and I have reply
just after Jeff's patch send out to you, I add my signed-off-by and
From, but no one care.

I know you are all experts and have lots of patches in community, you
won't care such a small patch's author, but this is very important for
me because this is my first patch, it's stand for my passion and will to
join the community.

I know it will cost you many works, but I still have to ask you to
replace this patch, because this will become a mistake in Linux, which
will make me sad each time I saw it on git log.

Thanks & Best regards
Michael Wang
