Subject: [PATCH] lib: asn1_decoder - add MODULE_LICENSE("GPL")
Date: Fri, 29 Apr 2016 17:48:08 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1461941288-10356-1-git-send-email-tudor-dan.ambarus@nxp.com> (raw)

A kernel taint results when loading the rsa_generic module:

root@(none):~# modprobe rsa_generic
asn1_decoder: module license 'unspecified' taints kernel.
Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint

"Tainting" of the kernel is (usually) a way of indicating that
a proprietary module has been inserted, which is not the case here.
