No, that will just make it messier.  Someone needs to delete all of the
mess in the file, put the proper license information for what the code
is being licensed under (whatever it is), and provide a signed-off-by
from a person from Synopsys and APM that can speak for the company that
they agree that the code can properly be placed into the Linux kernel.
