The license text is what you need to follow as almost everyone gets the MODULE_LICENSE() stuff wrong. You can not follow the MODULE_LICENSE marking for determining GPLv2 vs. GPLv2+ at this point in time. After we get the SPDX stuff all cleaned up then we can go and fix up the MODULE_LICENSE mismatch. So again, always defer to the license text in the file, NOT the MODULE_LICENSE() marking. thanks, greg k-h

If there is a conflict between the license notice and MODULE_LICENSE() we should go by the license notice. The license note is usually approved by companies, whereas MIODULE_LICENSE()s get moved, adjusted, etc. For ChromeOS kernel changes license notice is GPL v2 as documented at: https://www.chromium.org/chromium-os/how-tos-and-troubleshooting/kernel-faq section "Which copyright header should I use?"
