  • Using non-GPL licenses for our documentation is rather problematic,
    as it can directly include other files, which generally are GPLv2
    licensed and thus not compatible.

    Remove this license now that the only user (idr.rst) is gone to avoid
    people semi-accidentally using it again.

  • The infiniband code uses a variant of the OpenIB license. This license is
    BSD-2-Clause with the MIT disclaimer. The linux kernel uses this license
    extensively throughout the driver subsystem since 2005. Note that the
    OpenIB.org license is a true match to BSD-2-Clause.

    The license text was copied from:
