Uh... I basically took what Xiaofan provided and changed IDs and that's why.
But true enough, as I think about it now, I took some parts from the original
linux.inf file so there's probably *at* *least* as much your work as mine in
there.

I'll add you in the next version.  Or should I remove the notices all
together? Personally I feel they serve two purposes: give credit and let
others know who might be a good person to ask question.  I'm fine either
way...

Ah, haven't thought about that.  I grepped Documentation/ but forgot
about grepping my personal copy of the Internet I keep in my basement. ;)

I intended a consistent naming and that's why the rename.  In any way,
I'll get the old name in the next version of the patch.
