Hi Florian,

Well... I got to the table first with Gateworks so I don't see why I
can't take the 'gw' prefix personally. Note that I do have several
devicetree files in arch/arm/dts/imx6-gw*.dts* already in mainline
that use the 'gw' vendor prefix (albeit one could argue that I should
have been asked to add 'gw' to the vendor-prefixes.txt back then, but
that is not the way things went down).

Tim
