I would do the latter and add the license to meta-gplv2.

Re: [OE-core] [PATCH] elfutils: remove Elfutils-Exception and include GPLv2 for shared libraries
Can we restore meta/files/common-licenses/Elfutils-Exception in oe-core to
be used by meta-gplv2 version:
recipes-devtools/elfutils/elfutils_0.148.bb:LICENSE = "(GPL-2+ &
Elfutils-Exception)"
causing:
do_rootfs: The license listed Elfutils-Exception was not in the licenses
collected for recipe elfutils
or should I send patch for meta-gplv2 to restore it there together with
another LICENSE_PATH += "${LAYERDIR}/licenses"?

[OE-core] [PATCH] elfutils: remove Elfutils-Exception and include GPLv2 for shared libraries
Elfutils-Exception no longer exists after upstream release 0.154
and commit:
commit de2ed97f33139af5c7a0811e4ec66fc896a13cf2
Author: Mark Wielaard
Date: Tue Jun 5 17:15:16 2012 +0200
NEWS file in the sources says this about switch from GPLv2 to
GPLv3 license:
https://sourceware.org/git/?p=elfutils.git;a=blob;f=NEWS;h=5a06047f255e3c9a63828953759fd18a4ba9a3f3;hb=HEAD#l362
362 The license is now GPLv2/LGPLv3+ for the libraries and GPLv3+ for
stand-alone
363 programs. There is now also a formal CONTRIBUTING document describing how
to
364 submit patches.
libasm, libdw and libelf are thus covered optionally by GPLv2 license.
