And here is the output of drivers/mfd/sec-core.c *before*: Sangbeom Kim <[email protected]> (supporter:SAMSUNG MULTIFUNCTION PMIC DEVICE DRIVERS) Krzysztof Kozlowski <[email protected]> (supporter:SAMSUNG MULTIFUNCTION PMIC DEVICE DRIVERS) Lee Jones <[email protected]> (supporter:MULTIFUNCTION DEVICES (MFD)) and after (where I am listed as reviewer): Sangbeom Kim <[email protected]> (reviewer) Krzysztof Kozlowski <[email protected]> (reviewer) Lee Jones <[email protected]> (supporter:MULTIFUNCTION DEVICES (MFD)) Maybe it should be "supporter reviewer"?
