I believe this patch should have a better commit message.

Also Jani was looking to this conversions.
Jani, any comment here?

Thanks,
Rodrigo.

It isn't clear what should be changed, what do you have in mind?

It would make sense to state why you want to change the license to begin
with.

Anyway, I'll double check with our legal team and reply shortly.

I am porting the i915 code to OpenBSD again.  These files are the last
remaining GPL parts in my development tree.  If they can't have the same
license as the rest of the i915 code I will have to reimplement them.

Yes, that's a reasonable reason, which should be recorded in the commit
message. It's maybe also worthy mentioning that the files are only
touched by tree-wide changes in addition to Chris, so he's the sole
author of the file. Documenting these two saves somebody a lot of
digging when they come across the commit.

Pretty much everybody seems to be on their Thanksgiving holidays, so
I'll expect a reply early next week from our legal.
