[PATCH] mlx4: Add copyright holder to man pages

[Benjamin Drung]

Maor Gottlieb added the mlx4dv.7 and mlx4dv_init_obj.3 man pages, but
did not state the copyright owner of these files.

Do we really need copyright owner for man pages?

P.S. Can you please add rdma-core to your subject?
Something like [PATCH rdma-core]

I need it to do not miss them in patchworks while I'm applying patches.

Thanks

Yes. If the file contains a license statement, it should also contain
the copyright line. This answer the question: Who grants the specified
rights? Is the copyright already expired?

Yes. Done:
$ git config format.subjectprefix "PATCH rdma-core"

We might want to adjust the documentation to recommend these settings:

$ git config sendmail.to linux-rdma-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org
$ git config format.subjectprefix "PATCH rdma-core"

Are you OK now with the rest of the copyright situation? Did my
explanation about DCO on github make sense?

Sounds good, send a patch :)

I got no response from debian-legal. So I will try to upload the
package and will see if it gets accepted with some missing copyright
holders.
