The updated warning message is fine.

I wonder what the significance of the SoB is given that a) it's not
documented (at least in the netifd sources) and b) it seems to be ok to
"fake" someone else's SoB and c) there are several commits in the newer
history of netifd that don't have a SoB of either Author or Committer
(or both).

Best regards
Uwe
