Sorry this was my fault as I used a three-dash line to comment a code
section in the commit message. Which instead just cuts the commit log
short when applying the patch. Sigh.

You can see this in the original post:
https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20220930003844.1210987-1-cmllamas@google.com

I believe Andrew noticed this error and fixed the patch. However, the
Signed-off-by tag probably got dropped in the process. I'm unsure if
this can be amended in the mm tree?

Thanks Stephen for flagging this and apologies Andrew for the trouble.
