My 2 cents here: I'm a big fan of using C-BY-SA-4.0 for documentation. IMO, it fits better than GPL for docs. For a pure .rst file that doesn't use kernel-doc, that is the best choice on my PoV. Yet, I'm not sure if we can import something from a GPL (using kernel-docs) on a CC rst file. Perhaps it needs some exemption to explicitly allow that. Thanks, Mauro
