firmware: Update information in linux.git about adding firmware
Kyle McMartin joined the linux-firmware maintainers, and we now have an alias <linux-firmware@kernel.org> which reaches all of us. Include that instead of the individual addresses. Add some further recommendations that were already included in the README in linux-firmware.git added by Xose Vazquez Perez <xose.vazquez@gmail.com>.

To submit firmware to that repository, please send either a git binary
|
||||
diff or preferably a git pull request to:
|
||||
David Woodhouse <dwmw2@infradead.org>
|

Your commit should include an update to the WHENCE file clearly
|
||||
identifying the licence under which the firmware is available, and
|
||||
that it is redistributable. If the licence is long and involved, it's
|
||||
permitted to include it in a separate file and refer to it from the
|
||||
WHENCE file.
|
||||
And if it were possible, a changelog of the firmware itself.
|
||||
|
||||
Ideally, your commit should contain a Signed-Off-By: from someone
|
||||
authoritative on the licensing of the firmware in question (i.e. from
|
||||
within the company that owns the code).
|
||||

WARNING:
|
||||
=======
|
||||
|
||||
Don't send any "CONFIDENTIALITY STATEMENT" in your e-mail, patch or
|
||||
request. Otherwise your firmware _will never be accepted_.
|
||||
|
||||
Maintainers are really busy, so don't expect a prompt reply.
