As noted by Tejun Heo, the latin-1 copyright character \251 is invalid
in ASCII or UTF-8.  This changes the character to its UTF-8 encoding
in order to avoid problems with editors and other tools.

This seems to add \251 again :) Maybe some of your tools got confused 
enough?

Anyway, I have dropped the patch from Tejun for now.

Alternatively you could pick up Paul's patch on top of Tejun's if you have 
already pushed the commit ID out and want to avoid a rebase.

Thanks,
