Ok, WTF is going on here?

You just resent a patch that I got previously from RealTek, with their
proper authorship information on it, yet you do not have that authorship
on this patch at all.

You do NOT just blindly strip off the proper authorship information from
a patch.  That's wrong and can get you in lots of trouble.

Please go work with your managers to fix your development proceedures as
they are deeply broken if this is something that they are allowing you
to send out.

Ugh, this makes me mad...
