[PATCH] IPR: disclosures by Red Hat re: Networking Device

["Michael S. Tsirkin" <mst@redhat.com>]

I did my best to scan some Red Hat patent applications and look for
things that might be relevant to VIRTIO Networking Device section.

Should one of these applications be identified as essential to the
compliant implementation of an OASIS Standards Final Deliverable
produced by the VIRTIO TC, Red Hat will operate, as specified by the
VIRTIO TC, under the Non-Assertion Mode TC Requirements described in
section 10.3 of the OASIS IPR Policy (as of the date of this
disclosure).
