Hi Tammay,

If sending someone else's series you are 'handling' the patches, so should
add your own SoB after the original author's one.  Also, given you've tested them, a
Tested-by tag would make sense.

Any perf numbers you can share would also help push this forwards by showing
why people care.  I believe Leizhen's numbers were emulation based, so
not as good as real hardware for making the justification for the added
complexity!
