I would recommend to read up on how to submit patches in
"Documentation/SubmittingPatches". There's also
"Documentation/MyFirstContribution.adoc" to give more background on how
things work in our community.

The gitattributes file is specific to files stored in this particular
project, and we don't have any Verilog files in our tree. So this change
should be dropped.

I cannot say much about this hunk as I've never written or even read any
Verilog :)
