This isn't the right way to use Signed-off-by: lines in the kernel.  See

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/process/5.Posting.rst#n213

and

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst#n418

The only people who should be listed in Signed-off-by: lines are patch 
authors.

If your intention is to give Gary credit for changes in your patch, 
describe what ideas or code snippets you've taken in the patch description 
itself, above your Signed-off-by: lines so they would be included in the 
git commit description should your patch be merged.
