Like I've said way back when, it's fine with me for you to take
authorship when you change the patches. The starting point was a hacky
pile of patches that I threw over the fence, and I think it would be
silly for me to insist on retaining the authorship.

That said, Signed-off-by is a legal thing, and you *should* retain
that. See https://developercertificate.org/ for what it signifies.

BR,
Jani.
