While also IANAL (and I try and stay out of these discussions), paging
around in the kernel log it sure seems like Linus and akpm both add
S-O-B when they git am something in (perhaps why there is git am
- --signoff?) but not when it comes via pull request.  In other words,
up until the point it goes into intended-to-be-pulled-somehow-someway
git, whomever is presenting the work adds one (or more) to say I (we)
worked on it and yes, applies as well as the person bringing it in (I
touch this and believe it to be).
