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

do not have to add them manually, but unfortunately it does not do
proper UTF-8:

Ugh.

I made an 'issue' of it for patchwork:

 https://github.com/getpatchwork/patchwork/issues/194

and hopefully that can be fixed. It's sad when we corrupt names like
this.

Might not even be an issue with recent patchwork, but unfortunately
the version that is running on kernel.org is ancient as far as I know.

FWIW I use patchwork.kernel.org and I don't have any issues with UTF-8
characters in the From header. For example, here's one patch which I
recently applied:

https://git.kernel.org/linus/88001968245c

But of course it depends on what tools you use (I have my own patchwork
script which downloads and applies the patch) or what characters there
were etc. 

Also I heard that we should get an upgrade to patchwork.kernel.org in
the near future, which is great. The current version has some quirks
which are quite annoying.
