If it's a total rewrite, I'd say use:

Suggested-by: Matthew Garrett <...>
Link: https://lore.kernel.org/of/what/it/was/based/on

If it's built on an existing patch, I'd say use:

Co-developed-by: Matthew Garrett <...>
Signed-off-by: Matthew Garrett <...>

But I defer to what Matthew thinks. :)

Also, if you don't hear from Matthew, maybe ping his mjg59@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
address.
