More accurate would be "whenever there is updates in the upstream linux-user/
subdir that require rebasing", but that might give some people the impression
that it is actually rabased quite rarely ;-)

The "From:" fields were not intended as signed-off-by replacements, but rather
to ensure that the authorship info is not lost. With the current mailer setup
the email header "From:" on the patches sent to the mailing list shows my address,
and I don't want to take anyones credit away.

I'll have the look at the compiler warning, I didn't see any warnings on my build
env(s) before mailing.
