Kamalakshitha, since I designed and fought for the mempool zero-copy API, which I consider the core part of the patch, I would prefer being designated as the author of the squashed patch.

I'm no expert at git, but I think the "From" tag indicates the author. So the tags in the squashed patch should be:

From: Morten Brørup <mb at smartsharesystems.com>
Signed-off-by: Morten Brørup <mb at smartsharesystems.com>
Signed-off-by: Kamalakshitha Aligeri <kamalakshitha.aligeri at arm.com>
