Can I get some acks from the other developers who have worked on this
driver to verify that this version does indeed work, and that their work
has been integrated properly into the driver?

WTF?

Um, I think someone needs to rethink this submission, as this really
doesn't look like GPL code...

Oh, and where do I go get that "writing" between me and Synopsys to fix
this up?  :)

Same here, what is going on?

Has someone run this through the proper legal approval to make public?
If so, someone needs to go kick a lawyer.  If not, they just got in big
trouble...

It's fun to just tack on the GPL boilerplate on a file, but when it
conflicts with other stuff in the same file, it kind of just makes us
all go crazy.

I can't take this at all, please go clean it up.
