At the very least, it doesn't acknowledge my employer, and also has the wrong email address that I use for _all_ my kernel attributations. Therefore, I can definitively say that that you made this up. Please correct it back to the sign-off in my patches that you derived this combined work from. Given that sign-offs have legal purpose, what's more concerning is that care has not been taken on your side to ensure that your handling of it is correct, and has taken several postings before this cockup has been noticed. This is not good.

My apologies, I'll fix the commit tags. Best Regards,
