Feel free to just take authorship of my parts, and make my
"Needs-sign-off's" be just "Acked-by:"

Or alternatively keep them as "Signed-off-by:", even when it looks a
bit odd if it doesn't have a "From:" me, when the actual patch won't
then actually go through me - I'm assuming this will come in through
the -mm tree.

As to the ppc parts, obviously it would be good to have Aneesh re-test
the series..
