Thanks! This looks good to me. One comment, though:

Some people may have different opinions on how to manage other people's 
patches, but here's mine:

If you have made changes to a patch from someone else (me, in this 
case), other than really trivial typo fixes or such, you should add your 
signed-off-by.

Also, if you change the patch in a way that might make it behave 
differently than the original, you should change the ownership to 
yourself, drop the original signed-off-by, and perhaps say in the desc 
that the original was written by xyz. I don't want "my" patch to cause 
kernel crashes, if it's really not my code =).

Actually, I see we now have "Co-developed-by" documented in 
Documentation/process/5.Posting.rst. That may be suitable here.

And for the patches that you didn't touch, I'm sure you've still gone 
through those, so you could add your reviewed-by.

  Tomi
