Precise and non-ambiguous license information is important. The recently added aegis header file has a SPDX license identifier, which is nice, but at the same time it has a contradictionary license boiler plate text. SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 versus * This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify * it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by * the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or * (at your option) any later version. Oh well. Assuming that the SPDX identifier is correct and according to x86/hyper-v contributions from Microsoft GPL V2 only is the usual license. Remove the boiler plate as it is wrong and even if correct it is redundant.
