Re: [PATCH] README: clarify redistribution requirements covering patents

+the firmware license provided includes an implicit or explicit
+patent grant to end users to ensure full functionality of device
+operation with the firmware. If the licence is long and involved, it's
 permitted to include it in a separate file and refer to it from the
 WHENCE file.
 And if it were possible, a changelog of the firmware itself.
"end users of the device" or just "end users"

I'm assuming the worry for most vendors is licensing it to be used on
some third party product ?
