[PATCH] can: add explicit copyright to header can/netlink.h

From: Marc Kleine-Budde <mkl@pengutronix.de>
Date: 2013-09-06 14:30:20
Subsystem: can network drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Marc Kleine-Budde, Vincent Mailhol, Linus Torvalds

From: Uwe Kleine-König <redacted>

This file is copied to the source code of user space applications (in
this case can-utils) and so it makes sense to mention explicitly its
copyright. I added the terms of C code that was introduced in the same
commit as this header.

Hello Wolfgang,

this is the remaining hunk from Uwe's patch that has not been Acked. Continuing
with Uwe's words (adopted):

I think it is necessary to get the Ack of the people mentioned in
the Cc: commit footers. @Wolfgang: I added a statement

    The provided data structures and external interfaces from this code
    are not restricted to be used by software with a GPL compatible license.

similar to the other can headers. Does that suit you?

Best regards
Uwe
