Re: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v3 02/17] net/ionic: add hardware structures definitions

[Alfredo Cardigliano <cardigliano@ntop.org>]

I will add "BSD-3-Clause" to ionic_if.h with the next V4 patch-set coming soon.
I will keep "GPL-2.0 OR BSD-3-Clause" for the other files as in my understanding
that seems to work.

Thank you
Alfredo
