As much base code is copied from m25p90.c,
Do you mind keeping the sign-offs of the original contributors of m25p80.c
at-least in patches where much code is ported ?

I have added the lines in the spi-nor.c:

" Cloned most of the code from the m25p80.c"

quoted

This would at-least give some credit to original authors and contributors.

I do not change any authors information of m25p80.c.

If it is not enough?  Could you remind me what to do ?

(1) Add sign-offs of main authors of m25p80, so that original contributors
 still remains in path of submission [1].

Do you mean add the sign-offs in end of the patch 3's commit message?:
	Signed-off-by: Mike Lavender [off-list ref]

(2) Also, please remove following from spi-nor.c
  However, you can keep this in fsl-quadspi.c.
  +MODULE_AUTHOR("Freescale Semiconductor Inc.");
  I'm sure this was _not_ present in original m25p80.c
 (m25p80.c was started as ST's driver as per MODULE_DESCRIPTION)

okay.

(3)     +MODULE_LICENSE("GPL");
Also, I assume the license version should be "GPLv2" ?

yes. it should be v2.

thanks
