This is a convoluted one. Tom Cubie, for example, is an allwinner employee which authored the original code. That code was released under the GPL by allwinner. People signing-off on this code are certifying point (b) for the allwinner dump, and/or point (a) for modifications done on top of that code. I hope this clears up the SOB situation.
