What is this SoB chain supposed to say?

Quoting from the link you shared:
"The Signed-off-by: tag indicates that the signer was involved in the development of
the patch, or that he/she was in the patch's delivery path."

My intent to include Boqun in the Signed-off by tag was to indicate that he was involved
in the development of the patch here.

Do you see "Co-developed-by" in the title of that section? This is how
you express co-authorship.

As it is now:

Signed-off-by: Sunil Muthuswamy <redacted>
Signed-off-by: Boqun Feng (Microsoft) <redacted>

it says that you authored the patch and Boqun handled it further, i.e.,
he's in the patch's delivery path. But he isn't - you're sending it.

HTH.
