I understand that this is an issue for the inclusion in firmware binaries. Though, we just followed common practice here which is gplv2. I looked through existing dts files in arch/arm*/dts/* and about 590 of 720 have a gplv2 statement in. The other files don't have any and thus following the COPYING file which is gplv2 too. It is my understanding that the kernel requires licensing under gplv2. So an option would be to dual license the dts file, e.g. with BSD. How is this typically handled? Are there other repositories where dts files are included with a different license model than gplv2?
