Subject: module_author: don't advice putting in an email address
From: Rene Herman <rene.herman@xxxxxxxxx>
module_author: don't advice putting in an email address
It's information that's easily outdated and easily mistaken for a driver
contact which is a problem especially for modules with multiple current and
non-current authors as well as for modules with a maintainer who may not
even be a module author.
