[patch V5 02/11] LICENSES: Add the GPL 2.0 license

2017-12-28 Thread Thomas Gleixner
Add the full text of the GPL 2.0 license to the LICENSES directory. It was copied directly from the COPYING file in the kernel source tree as it differs from the public available version of the license in various places including the FSF. Philippe did some research on the GPL2.0 history:
