Just so it's extra clear, you want an "Acked-by" tag from Doug W in a public
forum?  Or he should be CC to that patch and needs to give the acked-by
tag in the V2?

He already did respond in a public forum indicating this although he didn't
"generate a tag" for that:
https://www.spinics.net/lists/platform-driver-x86/msg16336.html

Can Stuart just add the "Acked-by" tag himself to the commit in V2 at this
point considering that?  Or do you need patchwork to pick it up and apply it?
