Searching the internet, people claim it's just public domain...
My topic/dhry-unsquashed branch has my rationale:
FreeBSD uses BSD-2-Clause for this, which is probably the closest to the
original intention of the authors.
Augment with GPL-2.0-only, as this now calls into internal Linux APIs.

when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
