Dual licensed files don't count, you can just ignore the license you
don't like. I'm saying that only-GPL'd .c-files are a non-starter for
*BSD kernels.
However, when things are added to the official Linux kernel,
dual-BSD-GPL files often have their BSD license removed, and
compatibility ifdef's are almost always removed. That can be a
challenge if you try to keep a unified code base.
