I don't quite understand this last bit.  Firstly, I'm not aware of any
agreement with the Linux Foundation over this and secondly one of the
cardinal principles of GPL is the copyleft one that all downstreams get
equal rights, so you can't licence GPL code to anyone in particular
because you have to licence it to everyone.  Thirdly, I think it should
be the GNU General Public Licence.  In the context of the kernel, that's
probably taken as read, but if you're going to add it explicitly, might
as well be precise.
