The other intention was to help your team with the differences in what has changed across the kernels as a reference so that you reuse some of the work. Certainly I was not going to claim authorship or make the final submission. About Signed-off-by lines (if that's what you refer to about authorship), I intentionally didn't include it in my temporary git tree as I wanted to make sure if I could use it without permission. My intention was to rebase and include the relevant SOB lines after I got clarification on this. Could you suggest a general rule about SOB lines and whether these can be used without permission when you reuse/adapt a patch? I hoped that the words "borrowed from PSP" in the commit summary, the relevant links to the commits in your tree in the commit summaries and the retaining of copyright information in the code made it clear that I was not the original author. I understand that it is a bit frustrating to see someone take your code when its not yet complete, anyway I hope my commits help in some way. Atleast there might be a few people who test your code on the Beagle and give your team some valuable feedback.
