Yeah, it's correct. I had the same question when I was told that this was the
correct phrase to use. Check other copyright lines in the kernel and you'll see
the same line.

Since it is covered by the LGPLv2 license there aren't many rights to reserve :-)

The only right there is in practice is the right to decide whether or not to
allow other licenses as well.
