If anyone is interested I can send them a .mailmap that fixes a lot of

Please just make a patch with it, and post it to lkml and CC Linus and
Andrew Morton. Repost a month later if no one picked it up.
I think that 'git log' should really consider the .mailmap by default.
Otherwise what's the point? The only time when .mailmap should not be
considered is when using --pretty=raw or when explicitly told not to.
