The only files where I saw any non-trivial code from other contributors are bsd-user/bsd-mem.h: 8 bsd-user/elfload.c: 36 bsd-user/freebsd/os-misc.h: 1 bsd-user/freebsd/os-proc.c: 3 bsd-user/freebsd/os-proc.h: 3 bsd-user/qemu.h: 58 bsd-user/strace.c: 7 There are way too many historic authors for elfload.c, qemu.h and strace.c to make it worth chasing those down, so I'd suggest just dropping those three files from the commit. For bsd-mem.h, and freebsd/os* Karim Taha is the only notable omission I saw. Up to you whether to check with them or just drop those files from the cleanup.
