I think it would be unfortunate to have different licenses in the same driver. For example think of copying a function from one file to another, how would we handle that? So my strong recommendation is to use the same license throughout the driver. And in this case I consider mt76 directory and it's subdirectories as being one driver, please correct me if that's not the case. -- https://wireless.wiki.kernel.org/en/developers/documentation/submittingpatches
