There is a Suggested-by tag that can be added before your sign-off.
Similarly there are few other useful tags which are good to know.

In general the patch looks good, thanks for you work. Will wait some
time to let people review it and then apply.

As a side note, it is always good to say why the patch is good in commit
message, so that maintainers know that author knows what he does, they
indeed want this patch and people that would stumble upon this patch in
future could know the rationale behind this change. This patch is pretty
trivial, though, so I'll let it go this time.

Best regards,
Tomasz
