Sameer, in the kernel community, there is the convention to acknowledge a 
patch with responses, such as Acked-by or Reviewed-by. Maintainer scripts 
then allow the maintainer to pick those up automatically from the 
responses. So, you would respond in a new line with "Acked-by: your full 
name <your email address>".

You can read more on that here:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html#when-to-use-acked-by-cc-and-co-developed-by

I hope this helps and is interesting to you.

Thanks for your review and quick response to my patch,

Lukas
