This should have a SPDX tag instead of the license excerpt:

sprint_size() comes from TC and predates iproute2 git repo (2004),
whereas Cumulus Networks was around from 2010. So the authorship
declaration is likely inaccurate. I think it's also unnecessary, and
would just drop it.

The same here re license and authorship. The latter might in fact be
accurate in this case, but I would still drop it :)

Otherwise this looks good to me.
