Bad SoB chain, should be:

Signed-off-by: Maxim Levitsky <mlevitsk@xxxxxxxxxx>
Co-developed-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@xxxxxxxxxx>
Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@xxxxxxxxxx>

Interestingly, git-apply drops the second, redundant SoB and yields

Co-developed-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@xxxxxxxxxx>
Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@xxxxxxxxxx>
Signed-off-by: Maxim Levitsky <mlevitsk@xxxxxxxxxx>

Which will probably get you yelled at by Stephen's scripts :-)

A few nits below...

Spurious newline.

Please run these out to 80 chars, it saves a whole line!
