I don't have the answer myself. I haven't added any of my signed-off-by for the
patches I squashed/tested/sent. For small patch set, I would request the
original author to send each patch. For large set with dependency, I send patch
on behalf of the authors. I don't want to take credit for the patch I didn't
contribute the change. I test all of them though.

If the signed-off-by has different meanings, I am OK to change my practice.
