copyright.list shows assignments from Xilinx for GCC, binutils, GDB and 
glibc, with no indication that they are not current, or of any restriction 
on who at Xilinx can contribute changes.

Thus, I presume we simply need someone at Xilinx to approve the 
contribution of this patch to GCC.  The last patch sent to gcc-patches by 
someone @xilinx.com appears to have been 
<https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2016-01/msg02291.html>; author and 
other @xilinx.com people from that discussion CC:ed on this message.
