Subject: [PATCH v2 3/8] ARM: dts: imx6-sabrelite: Replace license text comment with SPDX identifier
Date: Thu, 14 Aug 2025 09:47:45 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250814-imx-misc-dts-lic-v2-3-faff7db49a5f@prolan.hu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250814-imx-misc-dts-lic-v2-0-faff7db49a5f@prolan.hu>
Replace verbatim license text with a `SPDX-License-Identifier`.
The comment header mis-attributes this license to be "X11", but the
license text does not include the last line "Except as contained in this
notice, the name of the X Consortium shall not be used in advertising or
otherwise to promote the sale, use or other dealings in this Software
without prior written authorization from the X Consortium.". Therefore,
this license is actually equivalent to the SPDX "MIT" license (confirmed
by text diffing).
