Hi Dave,

Sent you a smaller version of this patch before. This 'backports' the
setting of MODULE_LICENSE("GPL") for the following files, from all the
way back to 2.6.1, to 2.4.26 (should apply on latest BK too):

 fc4/fc.c            |    2 ++
 sbus/char/bpp.c     |    2 ++
 sbus/char/vfc_dev.c |    2 +-
 scsi/esp.c          |    2 +-
 scsi/fcal.c         |    2 +-
 scsi/pluto.c        |    2 +-
 scsi/qlogicpti.c    |    2 +-
 7 files changed, 9 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-)

It also removes EXPORT_NO_SYMBOLS from those files based on the advice
from Jan-Benedict Glaw.

This patch is necessary so these drivers if built as modules (especially
esp and bpp) don't taint the kernel erroneously. I might have mislicensed
some files though, if they have changed or have been rewritten since 2.4
days.

Please apply if all is well.

Applied, but I may not send this in to Marcel until the next release.
