You are not the author of any of these patches. Where are the author
attributions for the team that actually wrote this code?

In the commit text.. The author field is used to denote who authored the
commit, which in this case is me.

You have that wrong.
Author and Committer are different git fields.

http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/user-manual.html

      * an author: The name of the person responsible for this change,
        together with its date.
      * a committer: The name of the person who actually created the
        commit, with the date it was done. This may be different from
        the author, for example, if the author was someone who wrote a
        patch and emailed it to the person who used it to create the
        commit.

I'm not even sure how to make these different, but in this case it
doesn't matter because the "committer" as you defined it above is more
than one person ..
