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"?

Best regards,
Krzysztof
