Use a literal
Signed-off-by: Jon Dufresne <jon.dufresne at gmail.com>
please.
Attached is an updated patch which has a complete and correct (AFAICT)
license header. Your license headers were missing author(s) and date.
The trivial files and those you wrote from scratch are now
* Copyright (C) 2006 Jon Dufresne <jon.dufresne at gmail.com>
and some of them are (also) copyrighted by others.
I reconstructed some licensing info from the svn logs. Please let me
know if my conclusions are not correct.

Trivial.

Trivial.

Written from scratch.

Judging from
http://tracker.linuxbios.org/trac/LinuxBIOS/log/trunk/LinuxBIOSv2/src/mainboard/via/epia/debug.c
which seems to be the first occurence of any debug.c in the code, this
was written by Ron in 2003, so:
* Copyright (C) 2003 Ronald G. Minnich <rminnich at lanl.gov>
Is this correct? The commit comment says "via epia; also yh lu tyan.".
Does that mean YH is the author?

Judging from
http://tracker.linuxbios.org/trac/LinuxBIOS/log/trunk/LinuxBIOSv2/src/northbridge/via/vt8601/northbridge.c
which seems to be the first occurence of a northbridge.c which this one
is based on, this was written by Ron in 2003 and modified by Eric in
2003,2004, so:
* Copyright (C) 2003 Ronald G. Minnich <rminnich at lanl.gov>
* Copyright (C) 2003-2004 Eric W. Biederman <ebiederman at lnxi.com>
* Copyright (C) 2006 Jon Dufresne <jon.dufresne at gmail.com>

Trivial.
* Copyright (C) 2006 Jon Dufresne <jon.dufresne at gmail.com>

Currently empty. If you add code here, please add a license header.

Trivial.
