What's you take since you wrote the doc for this? And is there still
some updates needed for this since your last patch set?

While looking closer into different files I think it would become multiline again:

Side note a trailing  "All Rights Reserved." in a copyright statement
is never needed, even though customarily cargo culted by everyone,
including me.
Started in 1910, it become fully obsolete in 2000 thanks to Nicaragua

Interessting. I just kept it because it was in the original file from freescale.
But with this background, I think it's fine to drop it, now.

Thanks,
