I'm not the one calling people names.
I wanted to understand the facts but nobody here wants to acknowledge that

3 of those files have *alternative* licensing.
I agree fully with you all in the other 5 files which are not dual licensed.
The full story I needed to know is clear on those 8 files involved in the diff

on lkml you shows us, what I wanted to know is your understanding. I see now

you seem to pretend that GPLv2 can't be chosen for those 3 files.

Sure, let's make a gentleman's bet. If on those three files that are dual

licensed, I'm wrong, I'll donate 50 EUR to OpenBSD.
I also encourage those who agree with me to do so as well.
If you're wrong, you'll say sorry, publicly, ok?
Again, I'm talking only about the 3 files that are dual licensed, since on

the other 5 I agree with you, fully.
