Hi David

I have two questions.

Q1. How should I handle "Copyright" ?

Q2. As I said before, "Intel EG20T PCH" was deleted by someone.
So, I want to retrieve the description. Can I do ?

Thanks.

I can understand your saying.

If I post like below, is this patch acceptable for you ?
+       tristate "OKI/LAPIS SEMICONDUCTOR IOH(ML7223/ML7831) GbE"

BTW, I think need consistency for "Change company/product name" as a
whole of linux.
Because other patches for the same series "change company name" I
posted have already accepted.
e.g.(GPIO, USB device, DMA, UART, I2C)
I mainly object to moving the driver around, and failing to retain
the old name especially in user visible contexts such as Kconfig
variables, help text, and module parameters.
