The crc32 code came from linux@horizon.com with the following
copyright abandonment disclaimer, which is still in lib/crc32.c:
/*
* This code is in the public domain; copyright abandoned.
* Liability for non-performance of this code is limited to the amount
* you paid for it. Since it is distributed for free, your refund will
* be very very small. If it breaks, you get to keep both pieces.
*/
Thus GPL plus additional rights is appropriate.
Thanks,
Matt
