Are you sure that "QueenJcloud" is the best way to identify you? We
prefer a real name if possible, and yeah it should match the name
associated with your email address.
Documentation/SubmittingPatches has the following about this:
"[[real-name]]
Please use a known identity in the `Signed-off-by` trailer, since we cannot
accept anonymous contributions. It is common, but not required, to use some form
of your real name. We realize that some contributors are not comfortable doing
so or prefer to contribute under a pseudonym or preferred name and we can accept
your patch either way, as long as the name and email you use are distinctive,
identifying, and not misleading.
The goal of this policy is to allow us to have sufficient information to contact
you if questions arise about your contribution."

This is a v2 patch, so it would be nice to know what changed since the
previous version of the patch. It could be added here after the line
with three dashes ("---").
Also it looks like this v2 patch was sent twice.

This looks good to me.

It looks like there is a spurious new line here. Please remove it.
