But not by you, apparently.

The patch below was first posted by somebody else
in 2013: https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/7/11/93

When re-posting somebody else's patch, you need to
preserve their From: and Signed-off-by: headers.

See Documentation/SubmittingPatches for the details
on that.

Pretending that other people's code is your own
is not only very impolite, it also means that
the origin of the code, and permission to distribute
it under the GPL, are in question.

Will you promise to not claim other people's code as
your own?

Otherwise there is another very good reason to refuse
ever accepting code posted by you into the kernel.
We cannot merge code when there is no clear permission
from the actual author to distribute it under the GPL.
