[PATCH net-next v3 2/2] net: Adding support for Cavium ThunderX network controller

From: Paul Bolle <hidden>

Also in: lkml, netdev

Just a nit: a license mismatch.

This states the license is GPL v2 or later. (The other files used for
this module contain an identical comment.)
+MODULE_LICENSE("GPL v2");
And, according to include/linux/module.h, this states the license is
just GPL v2. So I think that either the license used in the comment at
the top of those files or the ident used in the MODULE_LICENSE() macro
needs to change.

Ditto for the thunder_bgx.ko and the nicvf.ko module.

Thanks,


Paul Bolle
