I'm getting some git issue when trying to merge the third patch via email

   $ mhng-pipe-show_stdout 4 | git am -s
   Applying: RISC-V: Move setup_bootmem() to mm/init.c
   error: patch failed: arch/riscv/kernel/setup.c:163
   error: arch/riscv/kernel/setup.c: patch does not apply
   Patch failed at 0001 RISC-V: Move setup_bootmem() to mm/init.c
   Use 'git am --show-current-patch' to see the failed patch
   When you have resolved this problem, run "git am --continue".
   If you prefer to skip this patch, run "git am --skip" instead.
   To restore the original branch and stop patching, run "git am --abort".

can you send a PR with a signed tag?  I'll include this as part of the next 
merge window.
