This signoff order is wrong - first signoff line must be the author of the patch. (which is a pretty general rule with only rare exceptions)
This patch was from Peter originally, right? In such cases please add:
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>
To the head of the patch. Or, if Peter acked it, add:
Acked-by: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>
SOB lines are strictly only added by people who send patches to you - i.e. it records the patch handling pathway.
Thanks,
Ingo
