Just my 2 cents:

Just to be clear, as a corporate, as TI contributor we have approval for the
following two:

For new stuff:  GPL-2.0-only OR MIT
for legacy stuff, we had GPL-2.0-only.

There are indeed instances of community contributions with
GPL-2.0-only OR BSD-2-Clause, but that is definitely something community
is free to do. Looking at history of
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/clock/ti/mux.txt, I believe, at least
from TI perspective, we are fine with GPL-2.0-only OR MIT and I think it
will let other s/w ecosystems consume the same as well.
