That seems like an odd copyright statement for a file that I created..

While the delcarations came from another file the whitespaces and
oinclude headers take up just as little lines and have just as little
substance..

Just not bother with copyright notices for trivial files.  E.g. we don't
bother with one for README.md or rdma-core.spec either.

My understanding is that when a new file is originated from an existing
file that it should maintain the copyright of the original file.

IFF there is copytightable material, yes.  Either way, no need to waste

ticking a checkbox go ahead with it..
