This is correctly identified problem, however, the problem is lkp's end.
It seemingly fails to handle non-UTF8 encoded emails correctly and just 
goes to assume the input is UTF8 encoded (w/o checking the Content-Type 
header).

The original file was UTF-8 (0xc3 0xa4). The email is correctly encoded 
ISO 8859-15 as can be see e.g. by downloading this (with a single 0xe4 
char):
  https://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=165545870203513&q=raw

When saving patch/exporting email, MUA/exporter should do ISO 8859-15 -> 
UTF-8 conversion. If I export email I sent, I get it back to UTF-8 just 
fine (as per the locale I've in use).

Just in case, I've attached the original patch file.

I thought git's toolchain these days handles these things fine but 
it seems not.
