This change looks really silly to me, but I am not a lawyer - so I
can't tell if this makes sense or not.

In any case, "Hisilicon" is being used all over the kernel - do you
intend to patch all places with similar changes like this one? Perhaps
just send a big tree-wide-patch instead and see what people think?

Plus, I'd expect authors to submit changes to copyright notices.

Although HiSilicon has applied for two trademarks Hisilicon/HiSilicon,
there is only one English name for the company. We have consulted with
company's lawyer who suggested that should use a copyright statement
consistent with the official website.

Though the kernel has tons of "Hisilicon", I just fix the copyright,
and plan to send a commit to each subsystem where is uncorrect. Fortunately,
there are not many modules that have the problem, this is one of them.

Thanks.

git grep Hisilicon | grep Copyright | nl
gives 159 cases.

Although if you make one patch per subsystem that should be a lot
less, which seems like a reasonable approach to me.

So, applied for next, thanks!
