| |
Precise and non-ambiguous license information is important. The recently added aegis header file has a SPDX license identifier, which is nice, but at the same time it has a contradictionary license boiler plate text.
SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0

Oh well.
Assuming that the SPDX identifier is correct and according to x86/hyper-v contributions from Microsoft GPL V2 only is the usual license.
Remove the boiler plate as it is wrong and even if correct it is redundant.

P.S.: This patch is part of a larger cleanup, but independent of other patches and is intended to be picked up by the maintainer directly.
