Really don't know what you are doing here. We did that before for a long time. During reviewing some patches, Linus or HPA or Eric has better idea and drafted some patch, without their Signed-offs. then first version submitter will continue the debugging and testing and make the patch working. At last the submit the patch with authorship from Linus or HPA or Eric. So at that time how can the Signed-off from them? And there are commits in the upstream does not have Signed-off from the Author.
