You have at least three options:

1.
From: Author Name <author.name@...mple.com>

...

Signed-off-by: Author Name <author.name@...mple.com>
[ Submitter did this and that to the Author's patch ]
Signed-off-by: Submitter Name <submitter.name@...mple.com>

So you either do that or you say something like

2. "Based on an original patch by Ashok..."

in the commit message

or

you add the tag

3. Originally-by: Ashok..

Makes sense?
