There is a lot of work here from both Vinit and myself in these patches, and
removing my authorship and the notes I made about Vinit's important
contributions are not appropriate in all the cases. Our SOBs should be retained
on several of the GuC patches, and authorship should be retained where
appropriate.

If you've written a majority of the patch, or vastly changed how the code works,
then you should change authorship.
