This Signed-off-by chain looks a little wonky because it reads as though
the patch was sent by Roy to Peter, who sent it to Leif. Not only that,
I don't have a record of Peter using his zytor.com account to submit
this patch, only his linux.intel.com address.

Subject: [PATCH] efi: Handle arbitrary Unicode characters
Instead of truncating UTF-16 assuming all characters is ASCII,
properly convert it to UTF-8.

It looks like some unnecessary patch munging has gone on here. Now if
Roy has modified Peter's patch in some way, that's fine, but it needs to
be called out in the SoB chain, e.g.
Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <[email protected]>
[ Add func foobar() and refactored code for XXX ]
Signed-off-by: Roy Franz <[email protected]>
Signed-off-by: Leif Lindholm <[email protected]>
Make sense?
