Personally I want to spend my time coding rather than dealing with 
licensing. As such, it's easy to forget to update the dates in copyright 
notices when changing files, or to put the correct information into new 
files when creating new ones (often by just cutting/pasting some other 
file with similar issues). If we had done that 100% correctly in every 
commit across history, my inclination is that more files would already 
have an NVIDIA copyright message, and/or already have 2016 in the date, 
and hence this series wouldn't include an edit to those messages since 
they'd already be up-to-date. Still, I have no searched all history to 
confirm that; it's just my gut instinct.
