Very true. I was actually expecting a patch like that either authored
or explicitly sanctioned by either one of those developers:
Hyun Kwon <hyun.kwon at xilinx.com> (supporter:XILINX VIDEO IP CORES)
Michal Simek <michal.simek at xilinx.com> (supporter:ARM/ZYNQ ARCHITECTURE)
As they own an @xilinx.com, we could assume that an email from
their corporate accounts to be official.
Thanks,
Mauro
