Yeah, I noticed that when preparing pull request, but did not want to rebase the branch that I always keep stable, sorry.
The reason it got messed up is I switched to pulling patches from patchwork.kernel.org as it collects Acked-by and Reviewed-by tags so I do not have to add them manually, but unfortunately it does not do proper UTF-8:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10431971/
I have since reworked by scripts to only take changelog from patchwork, and take author name/email from the mail message and using "git mailinfo" which worked well before. Should not happen again.
Thanks.
