Yes. The patches are generated using git format-patch and sent by
git send-email. That's how it always created patches for me. I am not sure if
there is a config I can change to avoid having From:

Without this we end up doing

 +    struct kvm_get_htab_buf {
 +        struct kvm_get_htab_header header;
 +        /*
 +         * Older kernel required one extra byte.
 +         */
 +        unsigned long hpte[3];
 +    } hpte_buf;


even though we are only looking for one hpte entry.

Don't bother, that's perfectly fine, and git am will do the right thing.

It will, but it's an indicator that something in his git config is misconfigured. Usually when git sees "Author == Sender" it will omit the From: line.

Ok, please give me an example with real numbers and why it breaks.

Didn't quiet get what you are looking for. As explained before, we now
need to pass an array with array size 3 even though we know we need to
read only 2 entries because kernel doesn't loop correctly.

But we need to do that regardless, because newer QEMU needs to be able to run on older kernels, no?

yes. So use space will have to pass an array of size 3. But that should
not prevent us from fixing this right ?

If we really want it we need to be able to tell user space that we support this feature through a CAP, so that it can act accordingly. Given the additional complexity of this and the fact that we do want to support older KVM versions regardless, I don't think it's worth the hassle.
