Rebasing is ok, still more as you didn't publish your tree (at least I'm
not aware of it). The tags should definitly make it into the final
history. When you submit the patches via email it doesn't matter if you
add them to your git tree or only to the mail (as you tree doesn't
matter for the final result).

Yeah, I saw it. That was already wrong. S-o-b is only for the author(s)
of a patch and the people forwarding it for inclusion (either via mail
or via a git tree). A S-o-b certifies that the patch's copyright is
suitable for the kernel. It doesn't say anything about its technical
impact.

Best regards
Uwe
