Everything looks good, except that your patch is received through "Your Name via lists.openembedded.org" or "Your Name via lists.yoctoproject.org". We'd need you to do add one thing to your git configuration, so that your patches are given an "Author" field which matches your "Signed-off-by" information. See https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded#Fixing_your_From_identity for details. Don't hesitate to send a patch test directly to me, if you wish. Thanks in advance Michael.

It was not clear to me what a "full revision identifier" was in the context of the note documenting SRCREV. After clarification via IRC, this submission attempts to clarify what is meant to help future readers.
