Hi,

Hence Huang has only copied so-called "header file contents", I think 
this should be fine. I've anyhow added a notice about that. I'll clear 
any issues directly with Greg Kroah-Hartman. The GPLv2 is clear that 
such contents is so-called "unrestricted". Se chapter 5.

Regarding the parts re-used from existing FreeBSD input drivers, this is 
the way we should write drivers, by trying to re-use existing well 
written and working device drivers. What Huang has done is perfectly 
fine with with me.
