This started out with Jordan's 2011 patch:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2011-04/msg00238.html
which I picked up and re-submitted with some moderate editing to
bring it in line with the current state of fw_cfg, work in lots of
good suggestions from Laszlo, add documentation for the host-side
API, etc.
The original patch didn't have a copyright line either, so at this
point I believe the default is preferable (path of least resistance).
Alternatively, if Jordan would like to add a copyright line to the
top of the file (as the original author), I have no problem with that
whatsoever.
Thanks much,
