This matches licensing used by most of BCM5301X files and is preferred as:
1) GPL 2.0+ makes it clearly compatible with Linux kernel
2) MIT is also permissive but preferred over ISC

This file has been developed by me & once modified by Rob dropping a
single leading zero in an UART address.

Rob: you modified this file by commit 8dccafaa281a ("arm: dts: fix
unit-address leading 0s") with a trivial change generated by a simple
perl command.

I'm not sure if I even need your Ack, but I'm not a lawyer after all.
Maybe you could ack this patch, just to keep it 100% legally clear?

I don't think you need it for trivial changes, but anyways:
