Add Juuso as one of the module authors, since he's working heavily on this
module as well.

Use multiple MODULE_AUTHORs instead.

Hah nevermind, my mind read MODULE_AUTHORS() :)

Is that the right way to do it? At least in include/linux/module.h it 
says this:

/* Author, ideally of form NAME[, NAME]*[ and NAME] */
#define MODULE_AUTHOR(_author) MODULE_INFO(author, _author)

As I interpret it, it means that there should be one MODULE_AUTHOR with 
a string that contains all the names.  So actually the right way to do 
it would be this:

MODULE_AUTHOR("Luciano Coelho <luciano.coelho@nokia.com> and "
	      "Juuso Oikarinen <juuso.oikarinen@nokia.com>");


Or am I missing/misinterpreting something?

Interesting, but I suspect that should just be changed.

If you use multiple MODULE_AUTHOR, they will be shown as such:

$ /sbin/modinfo ar9170usb | grep author
author:         Christian Lamparter <chunkeey@web.de>
author:         Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net>


If you use just one, it would be one long author: line with all of them.
I think the multiple line case is much nicer.

Yes, I totally agree with you.  I'll use multiple MODULE_AUTHOR()s.  ;)
