Subject: [patch 7/9] smb3: Cleanup license mess
Date: Fri, 18 Jan 2019 00:14:23 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190117231501.453156872@linutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190117231416.111952141@linutronix.de>

Precise and non-ambiguous license information is important. The recently
added aegis header file has a SPDX license identifier, which is nice, but
at the same time it has a contradictionary license boiler plate text.

  SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0

versus

  *   it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by

Oh well.

Assuming that the SPDX identifier is correct and according to x86/hyper-v
contributions from Microsoft GPL V2 only is the usual license.

Remove the boiler plate as it is wrong and even if correct it is redundant.

Fixes: eccb4422cf97 ("smb3: Add ftrace tracepoints for improved SMB3 debugging")

P.S.: This patch is part of a larger cleanup, but independent of other
      patches and is intended to be picked up by the maintainer directly.
