I'm adding a:

Signed-off-by: Leo Yan <leo.yan@linaro.org>

To the patches you're sending that you are not the original author, as
per defined in:

Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst

---
The Signed-off-by: tag indicates that the signer was involved in the
development of the patch, or that he/she was in the patch's delivery path.

If you disagree and want to retract the patch, please let me know, this
so far is speculative and is only on my local branch for testing.
