I forgot to mention that in any case _your_ signoff as the submitter
of this tree should be in all commits as well.

So for example this (sample) chain would be fine:

Reviewed-by: Stephen Neuendorffer <stephen.neuendorffer@xxxxxxxxxx>
Acked-by: John Linn <john.linn@xxxxxxxxxx>
Acked-by: John Williams<john.williams@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Signed-off-by: Michal Simek <monstr@xxxxxxxxx>

It's not enough to be listed as the author in the commit. (In any
case please see Documentation/SubmittingPatches and the DCO 1.1.)

Also, a minor stylistic detail, please fix this:

John Williams<john.williams@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

to:

John Williams <john.williams@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Thanks,

Ingo
