There might be other ways, eg it looks like Wolfgang addressed the issue
in this patch:
http://www.mail-archive.com/u-boot at lists.denx.de/msg17937.html

Does that patch work for you?  I'm assuming it will go in the next
U-Boot release.

In my opinion yes.  A copyright will explicitly say how the file may be
used, trivial as it may be.  Check out doc/feature-removal-schedule.txt:

What:	GPL cleanup
When:	August 2009
Why:	Over time, a couple of files have sneaked in into the U-Boot
	source code that are either missing a valid GPL license
	header or that carry a license that is incompatible with the
	GPL.
	Such files shall be removed from the U-Boot source tree.
	See
http://www.denx.de/wiki/pub/U-Boot/TaskGplCleanup/u-boot-1.1.2-files
	for an old and probably incomplete list of such files.

You're free to use whatever license you'd like, as long as its GPL
compatible.  There's no harm in adding a license header, right?

Best,
Peter
