Odd to see this From: line in the patch. Could you take a look
and see where this is coming from? Your gitconfig perhaps.

I have to fix this up when I apply the patch which I would like
to avoid.

Okay now I am with you on the changes you are making in Patch v3 1/2 and
this one.

Please collapse these two patches into one or fix the SRC_TREE problem first
and then fix the missing module case.

I would like to get an Ack from net-dev folks before getting these in.
Alexei and Daniel! Please review and let me know if you good with this
change.

thanks,
