Please drop all of the (R) stuff in here, and in the Kconfig file and in
the .c files.  If your lawyers insist on it, please point them at me and
I will be glad to discuss it with them.

Why not just put the tiny documentation file in the .c code itself?
That way it stays up to date and might actually be noticed?

Again, drop the (R) stuff.

And no SPDX line?

Why is this x86 only?  Please let it build on other arches.

See, you changed this from the first v5 version you sent :(

Also, this needs a lot more information, including the module name that
will be built and you can drop the documentation line.

No, that's not ok.  Don't add a file that does nothing.  Only add it
when you need it.

This can be KBUILD_MODNAME and then the file isn't needed at all.

This is not exported, nor should it be, so you do not need it in the .h
file.

This whole patch can be one .c file, not this mess of tiny ones.
