I disagree with this.

As expressed in the commit message, this patch is based on the
downstream driver, not the individual patch. As such, the _patch_ is
prepared by Jonathan and by his Signed-off-by certifies the origin of
the contribution per section 11.a or 11.b of submitting-patches.rst.



Regarding co-developed-by; this should not be used when "forwarding" an
existing patch. Per section 11.c the contributor should add their
Signed-off-by to certify the origin of the patch. Any modifications
should be documented in immediately proceeding the s-o-b, as described
later in section 11.

Thanks,
Bjorn
