Add a Signed-off-by line for yourself.  This is a short way for you to
assert that you are entitled to contribute the patch under buildroot's
GPL license.  See  http://elinux.org/Developer_Certificate_Of_Origin
for more details.

  I guess not only Windows and MacOS but also Linux, otherwise you wouldn't have 
sent this, right?

  Here, you need to add your Signed-off-by as well. This is needed because the 
package license may be different from Buildroot's, and the patch takes the 
package's license.
