Trivial, can be applied now without waiting for pending qapi patches.

Note there's no S-o-b line in the original patch (whole series,
looks like).  Hopefully it is okay for such a really trivial
patch :)

Applied, thanks!

It may be legally safe, but do we really want to engage in judging
whether patches are copyrightable or not?  Besides, it sets a bad
example.

Marc-André, please repost your patches ready for -trivial with your
S-o-B, cc: qemu-trivial.

Sometimes I question our own sanity.  Even for a trivial spelling fix
we require significantly more beaurocracy(sp) than the fix is worth,
and want formal rules instead of using common sense. This is a common
trend in the world, to formalize everything instead of thinking, the
world is becoming "candy".  This reminded me an old movie, "Demolition
Man", -- the cops in the future reads instructions about what to do
in each situation they happened to come.  But oh well, no one want to
take responsibility, that's okay ;)

Sorry for somewhat non-technical answer, I'll revert this patch,
waiting for more beaurocracy.

Mind you, it was a large series, with wasn't intended for -trivial
at all.  That's more rules and more beaurocracy.  And many other
patches in that series didn't have s-o-b line too.

Thanks,

Well, it could be worse, it could be CLA and copyright assignment.
S-o-B is probably the most lightweight thing we can do to stay on
relatively solid legal ground.

In my opinion, applying the "must have S-o-B" rule unthinkingly is less
effort than trying to identify cases where we can do without.

Chances are these patches really need it, so Marc-André has to repost
his series anyway.
