Note that when you get a 'Reviewed-by', 'Acked-by' or 'Tested-by'
reply to one of your mails, you should add that in the patch
changelog below your own 'Signed-off-by' in order to document
it for the future. This ususally still holds true when you make
further changes, just not when rewriting major parts of the patch.

For the Signed-off-by list, that should normally include only the
people that have handled the specific patch, it doesn't imply
authorship. Having seven people listed as Signed-off-by seems a bit
strange in this context, but there is no clear rule against it.
I would probably use 'Acked-by' or plain 'Cc' in the changelog for
some of the people, depending in what way they were involved.

At the least, you should have 'Signed-off-by' the person that wrote
most of the code, followed by the person that sends the patch at
the bottom of the list (as you did correctly).
