I mean the Signed-off-by's are not correct.

They should be in order of the patch submission path.

Who authored the patch initially and what part did David play?

I'm just wondering where to apply the patch. Either for -fixes or
-next. If the bug has been present for some time, I'll probably just
apply it to my for-next branch.

Also be wary of the $SUBJECT line format when submitting to different
subsystems. You can usually get an idea of what's expected by doing:

  `git log --oneline -- drivers/<subsystem>`
