It's both, I think.  There's an issue with BusyBox's git being configured
to require names to consist of two words.  And the Signed-off-by line
is needed to confirm that you're OK with the DCO.

>From my point of view, my first patch is based on work from both of us
so I think it should include Signed-off-by lines from both of us.  That
should be enough to cover the lack of signoff on your original patch.

Though, of course, IANAL.
