This knowledge is buried in scripts here, but IIRC it should suffice
having recorded authorship correctly in git.

If you touch a patch and it's just trivial, add a simple changelog like

Signed-off-by: Author ....
[Samuel: fix minor style issue etc.]
Signed-off-by: You

If you change the patch significantly, rather remove the authors
signed-off and ask to provide it again for the modified version.
