Update license template using SPDX. Move the global layout
of UBI headers to dual license helping UBI to be the standard
solution for raw NAND management.

No objections from my side, but you really need to poke IBM about that. And
if that happens then the kernel header. where this is copied from needs to
be updated as well....

Thanks,

Hi Frank,

May I ask you your point of view on this license evolution ?

So the goal is re-implementing UBI under a non-GPL license?

If we get a clear ack from all major UBI copyright holders, fine by me.

I already acked that for the u-boot SPL code. So yes:
