One last form issue (besides the whitespace corrupted patch 2/2 that
Greg pointed out): The SOB tags records how a patch got into the
kernel (e.g. who forwarded it) and the first SOB should generally be the
author's.

In this case, I guess Brant is the primary author as he submitted these
patches last time around. If so, you need to manually add From line at
the beginning of the mail (i.e. before the commit message). If you use
git-format-patch, git would handle that for you.

You can also use the newish "Co-developed-by" tag to indicate joint
authorship. More details can be found in
