I forgot to mention that in any case _your_ signoff as the submitter 
of this tree should be in all commits as well.

So for example this (sample) chain would be fine:

     Reviewed-by: Stephen Neuendorffer <stephen.neuendorffer@xilinx.com>
     Acked-by: John Linn <john.linn@xilinx.com>
     Acked-by: John Williams<john.williams@petalogix.com>
     Signed-off-by: Michal Simek <monstr@monstr.eu>

It's not enough to be listed as the author in the commit. (In any 
case please see Documentation/SubmittingPatches and the DCO 1.1.)

Also, a minor stylistic detail, please fix this:

     John Williams<john.williams@petalogix.com>

to:

     John Williams <john.williams@petalogix.com>

Thanks,

	Ingo
