Hi, Pedro,

Sorry. I will update copyright in Patch v3.

In my opinion for edk2 style, a implementation of library is required a header file and LibraryClass name for reference by others externally. Since libfdt is a third-party and we cannot include header files under the library immediately, we have to implement a header file for that. Also, we follow up edk2 style to make wrappers.

Thanks a lot, Pedro.

QQQ
Benny

+CC edk2-devel, It seems that you dropped it accidentally.
