Many thanks for the patch!
Everything looks good, except that your patch is received through "Your 
Name via lists.openembedded.org" or "Your Name via 
lists.yoctoproject.org". We'd need you to do add one thing to your git 
configuration, so that your patches are given an "Author" field which 
matches your "Signed-off-by" information. See 
https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded#Fixing_your_From_identity 
for details.

Don't hesitate to send a patch test directly to me, if you wish.
Thanks in advance
Michael.
