Hi Andrew,
no objection for you to pick this up as part as a larger cleanup. I've tried to reconstruct how this happened (i.e. what other phy driver file I used as a 'template' for asix.c) - all I can say is that the 2.0+ boiler plate text was in my initial commit, and the incorrect SPDX tag was added in response to checkpath complaints. So 2.0+ would be correct.
Thomas: does that suit your purpose?
Cheers,
Michael
