So having Ævar's S-o-b first makes sense, but the Helped-by should come before your S-o-b, as you made the changes first before sending out the patch series. When sending someone elses patch in a slightly modified version, it may also be useful to add which parts you changed, as it was done in e8dfcace31 ("poll: use GetTickCount64() to avoid wrap-around issues", 2018-10-31) for example. Iirc, the test that is added in this patch does not work on some platforms, notably MacOS. That would mean that we would break bisectability at this patch on some platforms if we were to introduce it here. Therefore I think it would be better to squash this patch into the next one which fixes these inconsistencies. Note that I can't test this at the moment, so this concern is only based on previous discussions that I remember. If that's already addressed somehow, all the better!
