Yikes! Another patch from ZTE guys.

I'm suspicious to patches sent from them due to bad reputation with
kernel development community. First, they sent all patches via
cgel.zte@...il.com (listed in Cc) but Greg can't sure these are really
sent from them ([1] & [2]). Then they tried to workaround by sending
from their personal Gmail accounts, again with same response from him
[3]. And finally they sent spoofed emails (as he pointed out in [4]) -
they pretend to send from ZTE domain but actually sent from their
different domain (see raw message and look for X-Google-Original-From:
header.

I was about to review documentation part of this patch, but due to
concerns above, I have to write this reply instead. So I'm not going
to review, sorry for inconvenience.

PS: Adding Greg to Cc: list.
