Subject: [PATCH V2] mfd: da9063: Update author information to remove incorrect
e-mail addresses
From: Steve Twiss <stwiss.opensource@...semi.com>
Remove incorrect e-mail addresses from the copyright header and
MODULE_AUTHOR() macro. These e-mail addresses are no longer in use.
The author names have not been changed, only the e-mail addresses have
been deleted from the source files.

Patch History
-------------
PATCH V2
- Also include company name. Change now of the form: <NAME>, <COMPANY>
e.g. Krystian Garbaciak, Dialog Semiconductor
- I have *not* changed the MODULE_AUTHOR() information to include the
company name, this still removes the old, invalid, e-mail address.
Hi Lee,
I have completed the changes to add the company name to the copyright
headers, however, I have *not* changed any MODULE_AUTHOR() macros
to include the company name.
The alterations to the drivers/mfd/da9063-core.c file include the removal
of the e-mail addresses only. This is because I have added the company name
at the top of the file in the copyright header and because the
recommendation from the include/linux/module.h file allows just the NAME
to exist (without E-MAIL).
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/include/linux/module.h
If that is still not acceptible, please let me know.
Just to re-iterate our point of view. Our intention with this change is
to encourage the group contact e-mail address for any support questions.
Not to mess with copyright or author information.
We have an e-mail address in the MAINTAINERS file covering all of the
developers under a single contact group, support.opensource@...semi.com,
but that is not acceptable for individual submissions where a single person
is responsible.
Regards,
Steve
