FYI, forging SoB, or any 'tag' other than Suggested-by / Reported-by is
frowned up. Now I do appreciate your effort to give me credit, but in this
case you should've used Suggested-by.

patch, so I would say just squash that into patch 1, and add

Reviewed-by: Valentin Schneider <valentin.schneider@xxxxxxx>

to it :)
