Здравствуйте! Извините за задержку с ответом.

Если вопрос насчёт оформления, то здесь уже plain text, а не HTML, всё в
порядке - других проблем не вижу. Т.к. уже шло обсуждение с мэйнтейнером

v3. Важно, чтобы последний Signed-off-by совпадал с отправителем письма.

Здесь бывает полезно указывать ссылки на обсуждения прошлых версий патча в
LKML, чтобы читатели вспомнили контекст.
