I thought the following was applicable here: (from SubmittingPatches)
(b) The contribution is based upon previous work that, to the best
of my knowledge, is covered under an appropriate open source
license and I have the right under that license to submit that
work with modifications, whether created in whole or in part
by me, under the same open source license (unless I am
permitted to submit under a different license), as indicated
in the file; or
And since it was publised on lkml (and the signoff process was not in
place then), I thought I could sign you off with a cc. I even added the url
to your original posting. I guess I was wrong. Really sorry :(.
