This matches the license used in the header file added in the same 
commit (see Fixes trailer).

Would have preferred the canonical version (GPL-2.0-or-later) but that's 
good enough here.

IANAL, so I don't know if we need approval from all contributors to the 
file. Fortunately, there's only been one outside of the two starfivetech 
contributors (whose mails bounce), so adding this contributor (Tanmay 
Kathpalia) in Cc so they can just provide their Acked-by/Reviewed-by so 
we don't have to find out.

Thanks!
