Hi Afif,

Thanks for your feedback. I've made the changes that you suggested.

Also, I've changed the upstream source to the linux-rdma github repository
and updated the code to 0.4.10.

Regarding the copyright, BSD should not have been in there and has been
removed. COPYING is identical to /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2. The
GPL-2 license section in copyright now contains the GPL-2 notice and a
pointer to /usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-2. Please let me know if that is
not the right thing to do.

Thanks, again!
