Re: [PATCH 1/3] ethernet/pch_gbe: Change company name OKISEMICONDUCTOR to LAPIS Semiconductor

[Tomoya MORINAGA]

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.
