Sorry, no. Indeed not necessary. If Intel doesn't claim copyright and
gives you the rights to publish under your own copyright then of course
feel free to do that. I just wanted to make sure that all that is
necessary is the Signed-off-by line for the commit and that no copyright
has to be assigned to another entity (Red Hat) for contributions to
elfutils.
Here are 5 x32 patches I put a line:
# Created by H.J. Lu <hjl.tools(a)gmail.com>, 2015.
in the new file I copied from the existing one.
