I just checked a small change into DRM CVS that adds sysfs i2c support to the linux radeon driver. The patch includes some GPL licensed code extracted from the Linux kernel. The GPL files are only in the drm/linux directory. No GPL code was added to drm/shared or drm/bsd so the BSD build does not include the GPL code. The two GPL licensed files are clearly marked including warnings not to copy them into the BSD build.
The issue with GPL and drm is as I have stated several times now that we've wanted XFree, and now Xorg, to be able to distribute this code as part of their tree.
XFree86 had a strong policy against allowing GPL into their tree, I don't know what Xorg's stand is. Maybe someone can comment from there?
