I don't think this is the right approach.  If you're pulling from a repo, 
then your signoff does not go on each patch because you trust the repo.

Otherwise, you should actually be reviewing each patch, which the above is 
not doing.

Each LSM maintainer should probably be doing per-patch review of the 
patches going into their tree, and adding their signoff, while I will try 
and always just do pulls from those trees.
