I don't understand this signoff chain; did both of you work on this
small patch?

Signoffs should also have full legal names in them.

This seems like a fine change but, as you notice here, putting section

those nicely, so I generally suggest just removing them entirely. I
wouldn't insist on that, but if you felt so inclined, that would be a
good improvement to the patch.
