Thank you for your detailed feedback and suggestions. I'll make the
necessary adjustments to the patch based on your comments above.

This is wrong as either it's a wrong tag (SoB --> Suggested-by?), or
missing Co-developed-by, or wrong order (but in that case David should
have sent the patch).

I believe the sequence is still correct, as the solution was provided by
David, and he should be the main author. I'm just the submitter, so my
sign-off should be placed last.

You are the submitter *and* the author in this case. As I said, that
SoB chain is wrong in its current form.

Hi Andy,

I believe this time I have correctly attributed the authorship by following the guide from:
https://docs.kernel.org/process/submitting-patches.html#when-to-use-acked-by-cc-and-co-developed-by
