Jie Yang, _is_ the original author. Thats a truth.

Why would you want to remove this line, this sounds very bad.

What you probably want is a change in MAINTAINERS file to reflect who
maintains atl1c at this moment and how to reach them by email.

Notes:

- Its also possible to add a new MODULE_AUTHOR() line

- You could remove the obsolete email address and keep Jie Yang name as
in :

MODULE_AUTHOR("Jie Yang");
