We actually need your full name for this patch as well. Signed-off-by
is a legal statement, so we need people to use their full name.

Can you send a v2 of your patch?

I don't think this is necessary. We don't do that for any of the other
packages in Buildroot. So from my point of view, the patch is OK, it
only needs to be resubmitted with a full name (as the From and in
Signed-off-by).

Thanks!
