GPLv2-only devicetrees make reuse difficult for software components
licensed under a different license.
The consensus is that a GPL/X11 dual-license should allow all necessary
uses, so relicense the vf610-twr.dts file to this combination.
CCs were acquired using (updated some email addresses):
git shortlog -sne --no-merges arch/arm/boot/dts/vf610-cosmic.dts
