There is such rule:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v4.17/process/submitting-patches.html

chapter "Developer’s Certificate of Origin 1.1" says

then you just add a line saying:
Signed-off-by: Random J Developer <random@developer.example.org>
using your real name (sorry, no pseudonyms or anonymous contributions.)

And in general, Developer’s Certificate of Origin
https://developercertificate.org/

says

By making a contribution to this project, I certify that:
...
(d) I understand and agree that this project and the contribution
are public and that a record of the contribution (including all
personal information I submit with it, including my sign-off) is
maintained indefinitely and may be redistributed consistent with
this project or the open source license(s) involved.
