This is not necessary as GPL is the same as GPL v2 commit bf7fbeeae6db644ef5995085de2bc5c6121f8c8d Author: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Feb 8 17:02:56 2019 +0100 module: Cure the MODULE_LICENSE "GPL" vs. "GPL v2" bogosity and documentation/process/license-rules.rst: The valid license strings for MODULE_LICENSE() are: ============================= ============================================= "GPL" Module is licensed under GPL version 2. This does not express any distinction between GPL-2.0-only or GPL-2.0-or-later. The exact license information can only be determined via the license information in the corresponding source files. "GPL v2" Same as "GPL". It exists for historic reasons.
