Indeed. But your comments in response to the "[flashrom] [PATCH] Support
device lists for programmers without PCI/USB IDs" thread sounded like
you didn't want to be associated with the rework I was doing, and I
wanted to avoid a situation where your signoff is associated with a
patch you don't like.

Do you agree with the patch summary I posted above, or is it incorrect?
I tried to dig up all the mails similar to this patch and hope I got the
"original by/reworked by" comment right.

Thanks. I'll wait for Maksim's signoff confirmation before committing.

Regards,
Carl-Daniel
