Maybe I lost it when folding and splitting various patches as I originally wrote this code in the userspace libxfs tree...

It isn't actually necessary. All code in the kernel is covered by the GPLv2, and so notices on individual files are not technically necessary. Just because it isn't explicitly stated in the file, it doesn't mean the GPL does not apply to the code - the kernel is licensed according to what is in the COPYING file (i.e. the full GPLv2 license w/ clarifications noted by Linus), and so that is the license that applies to the new file. All that actually matters in individual files is the copyright statements themselves... But, seeing as you are concerned, I'll add the boiler plates.
