I do not see consolidation in the patch, so this part and subject are
incorrect. You only add.

Please wrap commit message according to Linux coding style / submission
process (neither too early nor over the limit):

What does this SoB represent? Who wrote the code?

You added that SoB everywhere so I have worries it was automatic or
manager's decision. That isn't what SoB is about.

And looking at actual M: entry, this should be rather publicly Acked.
That's what Ack is. Not SoB.
