I think it is not possible because the driver also needs to support Linux kernel. To be honest I don't see a big issue of a driver as dual license, we already have SocketCAN and other drivers as dual license (GPL and Apache, BSD and Apache, etc). The original Author said the want is to be released as dual license: A or license B. The License war is terrible, I think there is not a single license compatible with all, even CC0, BSD or public domain cannot be used as freely was we think. Many countries law, companies, patents, etc, involved. BR, Alan
