To avoid this kind of problems, many years ago, I have had (see 'man git-config' for details): git config format.signoff true set in my local kernel dev repo clone. This way "git format-patch ..." would automatically add my sign-off for anything I "git format-patch" of . It is easier to remove the line if not needed, or just ignore the line if irrelevant, than to add the line every time. I did that to a few repos which explicitly requires signoff's. (wine is another one). Back to this series of patches, I think it is appropriate to add Acked-by: Hin-Tak <htl10@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> or 'Cc: ' as I was involved in packaging and adapting the patch series as for dkms / out-of-tree build for testing, so that I get e-mails, etc if it gets moved about / back-ported, though I was not involved in actually testing /using the patch series.
