The most of code is reused from nxp internal tree, If you refer the
patches from nxp kernel tree, please keep the signed-off with original

It doesn't matter, I am happy you upstream the patch.
Just keep: Signed-off-by: Fugang Duan [off-list ref]

Ok, looks like it was originally from you, should I add your current email
address or the one at the time (B38611@freescale.com)?

Actually I don't have the NXP tree but a Digi tree, which is probably based on
it.

I think, generally, this is a bit of a grey area.

While I would always keep a SoB if I base a patch on an old mailing list patch
submission (and contact the person if possible first to
ask) I'm not sure if a SoB from a "random git tree" indicates they wish a
mainline submission with their name (some people may want credit and
others not want to be considered responsible for bugs...).
I didn't see a submission of this version (with the gpr information coming from
the DT) on the mailing lists, only the initial version using the platform callback
that was NAKd (I may have missed it though).

Regards,

Martin
