And why would we want that?

Explain why we want this, and point out that this makes it similar to
load_up_fpu.

When posting a patch authored by someone else, more or less unchanged,
you should put a From: line in the body of the e-mail.

git send-email will do this automatically if you preserve the authorship
in the git commit.

Also, you should add your own Signed-off-by.

Hi Scott,

This had been reviewed before and accepted by internal tree.
http://linux.freescale.net/patchwork/patch/11100/
http://git.am.freescale.net/gitolite/gitweb.cgi/sdk/kvm.git/commit/?h=for-sdk1.2&id=c5088844dc665dbdae4fa51b8d58dc203bacc17e

I didn't change anything except the line.
I just commit to external kvm-ppc mailing list. Should I add my own Signed-off-by?

Best Regards,
Olivia

Yes, if you just take a patch from someone else and direct it to another 
tree, you keep the From: line (git cherry-pick or git am should do that 
automatically for you) and add your own SOB-line (git am -s can do that 
for example).

Since you're also supposed to change the description, please note that 
between Yu's SOB line and your SOB line with something like
