Ouch.
Please, read this
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html#backtraces-in-commit-messages
and modify the commit message accordingly.

Correct tag is Co-developed-by, btw it's written in the same document the link
to which I provided a few lines above.

Please, keep it ordered (with visible context this should go at least before
module.h).
