It's clear they should be removed.

there wasn't a valid objection against moving them under fsl/ and
changing them to use dashes instead of underscores, was there?

I agree with Alex to use the existing kernel versions, to be on
the safe side, but IANAL - did you want to go to the source of the
change (presumably a lawyer?) and find out why the contributors
clause was omitted and how they think that's appropriate in an
upstream submission?  If not, please resubmit after converting all
files to use the existing common kernel license text.

Thanks,

Kim
