Don't make the subject so long. This is why I had
[PATCH v3] vfio error recovery: kernel support
you also want to add versioning as you inherited my v3,
you should make this v4 etc.

It's more than this, you are really reusing parts of my patch,
so you should say so and include my signature.

If you only added a line or two you can keep
the original author. To do this you add
From: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@xxxxxxxxxx>
before commit text.
