Hello Kun Qin,

When you send patches to the list that were authored by someone else,
you should add your own signoff, and add it last. (The signoff means
that you attest that the patch is contributed under terms that are
compatible with the open source licenses we support. The signoff has
nothing to do with recognizing authorship, so even if someone else did
most of the work, if that person is not involved in contributing these
changes, their name does not need to appear in the Git log.)

Sean is the author, which will be reflected in the git log anyway, so
his signoff does not have any significance here, as he is not the one
sending the patch to the public mailing list.

Usually, I would fix up minor issues like these when merging the
changes, but adding a signoff on someone else's behalf is the one
thing I can never do.

So please fix this up, and then you can add

to the entire series.

Thanks,
