Ah, his "Signed-off-by" is missing. Understood. Wasn't aware that
this is a prerequisite. Thought the patches need at least one
person that signs them off.

This is because we both develop on the driver. And I take the
patches from our internal gitlab server, prepare them and send
them upstream. And those two patches missed his Signed-off
obvioulsy.

Should I resend?

regards,
Chris
