So... when I saw this I did wonder why one would knowly choose to use a
deprecated license identifier (https://spdx.org/licenses/ ).

However running `git diff v4.17..v4.18-rc1` through some filters does
indicate that GPL-2.0+ is the more popular choice by 256 to 0! Doesn't
mean you couldn't break the mould though ;-).
