How is this patch legitimate? Most of the files updated to 2018 were not actually changed this year, so you are effectively claiming a copyright extension that doesn't exist. I've seen other people submit patches that update copyright years, only to be told that those patches should be part of some other patches that actually update the content of the file (example: https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg489232.html). -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
