I would recommend taking all of it :) and completing the unfinalized review feedback with your work, plus some additions like the standard CS timing parameters. Then, you could keep that sign off chain and add yours at the bottom. At least that was my approach when I tried to continue Kuldeep's work. If you take a very small portion, I guess you could at least move the link inside the portion of the commit message that remains visible in the commit log. And for a significant portion, Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst says you could add Co-developed-by + Signed-off-by, followed by your sign off.
