We should make it clear that the code in question was committed by AMD
employees 5 years ago who forgot to fix the headers. Technically
speaking, since the code with NDA markers was released by the holder
of the NDA (AMD), it's not really NDA any more.

But, that said, it's important to be very careful in these situations.
We are working with AMD to resolve the problem. As usual, AMD is being
very helpful and we hope to have the headers fixed soon.

Thanks

ron
