[Intel-gfx] [PATCH] dim: Accept author x signed-off based on email.

It seems Patchwork or SMTP servers are messing some patches
and changing the original git's author name on git per "Last, First".
So we end up with a mismatch were signed-off uses one name format
and author is using another format.

So, let's check for email addresses instead.

v2: Avoid useles warning and only check for email.
