It's definitely a tricky question what the right Signed-off-by
chain is in this case, I guess strictly speaking it could have
been

Suggested-by: Felipe Balbi <balbi@xxxxxx>
Signed-off-by: Huang Rui <ray.huang@xxxxxxx>
Signed-off-by: Felipe Balbi <balbi@xxxxxx>
Signed-off-by: Huang Rui <ray.huang@xxxxxxx>

which could correctly track where the patches went, but it's also
somewhat silly.

I would probably just have dropped the second Signed-off-by,
so that the last S-o-b in the patch matches the "From", as we expect.

It's definitely good to know that Huang Rui was not faking your
Signed-off-by but that you had actually provided it yourself.
