If the code is co-written and you both agree with what the code
contributed by the other (in terms of Developer's Certificate of
Origin) then it's IMHO perfectly fine to have two Signed-off-by in the
submission.

At any rate it is much better to do that that to commit a known-broken
patch and have the second contributor fix it afterward.
