Ok, I think this will make sense for all the patches except gpio, which is a major rewrite by Guenter. So maybe this would be appropriate: From: Guenter Roeck <[email protected]> <patch description> Originally-From: Michael Brunner <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Guenter Roeck <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Kevin Strasser <[email protected]> ...
