I'm certainly not a lawyer, and I'm sorry for not reviewing the
content of the patch instead, but is that not a problem from a legal
point of view ?

Talking about legal, is it a problem if a commit isn't signed-off by
it's committer or author e-mail? Like in this case where the sign-off is
from gmail.com and the committer from nvidia.com?

It never has been.  My commits should have the author and committer
set to my gmail address actually.

Oh, that's why the extra "From: " - field below the header is for.

Others have sometimes used the two fields to distinguish between a
corporate identity (i.e. me@somecompany.com) that represents the
funder of the work and a canonical identity (me@personalemail.com)
that identifies the person that performed the work.

In some contries your work when you're employed does not belong
to you but to your employer and when you're acting for your employer
you're representing the corporate legal person. Therefore two different
e-mails can be seen as two different (legal not physical) persons.

At least that's how I understand those "legal tips for developers" I've
got.
