Thats interesting, some of these patches should actually be credited to
Carsten - and in fact on kvm.git master they are credited to Carsten.

I think the problem is, that these patches contained multiple From lines. On
kvm.git the first line (Carsten) was used. When you transferred these patches
to the kvm.git-2.6.26-branch, git used the next From-line as the original one
was already removed.

While it is not a typical case, is there a better way of specifying multiple
authors to avoid future confusion?

Christian
