That part is already sorted: b3cfa692878e ("mailmap: update email address
for Linfeng Sun") is in linux-next and maps gamil.com -> gmail.com, so this
commit will resolve to your correct address once that reaches mainline.

The stable backport carries the author line verbatim from the upstream
commit, so the queued patch is a faithful copy of 1ed35ac7f3fe. Editing it
here would make the stable authorship diverge from mainline, so I'm going
to leave it as-is and let the .mailmap entry take care of it.
No trouble at all, thanks for the heads-up.
