Hi,

Everyone on CC has contributed to the thermal bindings[1] in the
kernel. They are currently licensed under GPLv2 but we'd like to
relicense them as GPLv2 and BSD-2-Clause.

If you agree, could you please send your ack to relicense the binding
as GPLv2 + BSD-2-Clause. I will then add the BSD-2-Clause license to
the yaml bindings sent to the list.[2]

Regards,
Amit

Generally, the copyright is owned by the companies. I've already
gotten okays on any bindings from Linaro and Arm. Looks like it is
mainly Eduardo/TI that needs to agree. The remainder look to be
trivial changes.

No copyright attached to my trivial changes.
