I know that these commits are missing a SOB line.
Projects handle that differently; usually SOB is ignored or frowned upon. I
wasn't sure whether the GNU GRUB project requires it and a quick check on the
commit log revealed both commits with and without SOB, so I didn't add them.
Reading further messages on the list, it appears that the project does make use
of sign-offs, so I'll add them either a.) after a successful review prior a
merge or b.) on change requests that also require a revbump.
No reason to spam the list with an identical V3 patch set just for SOBs. :)
