[PATCH 0/2] Dual licence some files in GPL-2.0 and MIT

[Emmanuel Vadot]

Hello all,

We had a discussion a while back with Noralf where he said that he wouldn't
mind dual licence his work under GPL-2 and MIT.
Those files are a problem with BSDs as we cannot include them.
For drm_client.c the main contributors are Noralf Trønnes and Thomas
Zimmermann, the other commits are just catch ups from changes elsewhere
(return values, struct member names, function renames etc ...).
For drm_format_helper the main contributors are Noralf Trønnes and
Gerd Hoffmann. Same comment as for drm_client.c for the other commits.

Emmanuel Vadot (2):
  drm/client: Dual licence the file in GPL-2 and MIT
  drm/format_helper: Dual licence the file in GPL 2 and MIT

From: Emmanuel Vadot <manu@FreeBSD.Org>

Change the licence to a dual one with MIT so BSDs could use this file.

Can you pls list all contributors for each file in the commit message, so
we can make sure we're collecting all the required acks?

Afaiui for official relicensing, we need everyone.
