  (but only when additional warnings have been requested in general)"

people work on a single patch. Note, this person also needs to have a
Signed-off-by: line in the patch as well.
- Acked-by: indicates an agreement by another developer (often a
maintainer of the relevant code) that the patch is appropriate for
inclusion into the kernel.
