Hi Hemant, Thomas,

Can you please suggest about extra "All rights reserved." line.

It is in the part of the BSD header, and I _assume_ that has been intended to
cover all "Copyright" lines above it.
But since some of the Copyright holders (at least Intel ones) already has that
in same line with copyright and I _assume_ this is intentional because of legal
requirements, can we remove that line.

I guess we have two options while removing it, applying it to all previous
Copyright lines (B) or just remove it (A):

(A)
 SPDX-License-Identifier: BSD-3-Clause
 Copyright(c) 2010-2016 Intel Corporation. All rights reserved.
 Copyright(c) 2014 6WIND S.A.

(B)
 SPDX-License-Identifier: BSD-3-Clause
 Copyright(c) 2010-2016 Intel Corporation. All rights reserved.
 Copyright(c) 2014 6WIND S.A. All rights reserved.


Can we go with option (A)?
