Please stop top posting, reply inline like how I'm doing here. Also, I
don't merge patches I'm just a reviewer, Greg KH merges them.

About gmail, it is not unprofessional at all. Lots of people even
maintainers use it.

Simply put, if your From: and your SOB don't match your patch will not
be accepted and Greg will not manually fix it for you. You're going to
have to send a v2.

Read this on which email clients you could use:

Documentation/process/email-clients.rst

And here is a source on how to send a v2:
