I'm confused by this signoff chain.  You're supposed to give signoffs
from each of the entities whose hands the patch passed through ...
unless you've taken to emailing your own patches to yourself, this
doesn't look right ...

Could you just pick one?  If it's about credit, then the reporting stats
go by Author. All three signoffs  will do is inflate your rank in the
Signed-off-by stats (which I suppose we use for the kernel summit), but
I don't think it will give equal credit to the three entities.
