You have a typo in the patch subject (it was not there in your previous
version ;).

Also, you shouldn't add explanations about the different versions of the
patch in the commit message (in you case the "Earlier patch was missing
my signed-off-by line..." text).  If you want to add this kind of
comments, add it after the "---" under the Signed-of tags.

One more thing, it's a good idea to use [PATCH v2] when you're sending a
second version of the same patch.  That can be easily done with git
format-patch (and also with git send-email) by using an argument like
this: --subject-prefix="PATCH v2"
