Does that mean that when the submission arrives at your end it's supposed to
have a whole list of Signed-off-bys, one for each person who handled the
patch? Or is it only supposed to have one Signed-off-by, as close to the
original author as possible? Or one Signed-off-by with multiple upstream
emails on it?
