I had just retained the existing Signed-off-by from some of his patches
that got incorporated into this one, is using Co-developed-by better
practice for attribution? Should I use both a Co-developed-by and
the Signed-off-by for this sort of thing?

His work came from I think this branch and maybe some older ones:
