The open source project leancrypto (github.com/smuellerDD/leancrypto)
has asked to use the ASN.1 encoder/decoder files from the kernel.
Since leancrypto is licensed under BSD-3-Clause the fairest thing to do
for everyone is add BSD-3-Clause as an OR to the SPDX tag so every
project could import them under the same terms.

The copyright holders of both files have agreed to this change.
