Re: [UNIKRAFT PATCH 7/8] Correct license headers introduced by UPB



Hi Razvan,

as discussed offline, I will add a note to your `reviewed-by` tag that says that you did it `on behalf of` Bogdan Lascu who gave the agreement to you.

Thanks,

Simon

This commit removes the additional clause
"THIS HEADER MAY NOT BE EXTRACTED OR MODIFIED IN ANY WAY"
from BSD license headers that got introduced by mistake
by Bogdan Lascu with the following commit:
  32ad87545 - lib/vfscore: Add anonymous pipe

On the one hand, this additional clause is redundant because
the BSD license already states that it must remain and the
copyright notice must be kept.
On the other hand, the clause freezes the file header
and prohibits future contributors from extending the
copyright notice for their contributions. This additional
clause is not part of the official BSD 3-clause.

The original author consents to the change with a `Signed-off-by`
or `Reviewed-by` tag to this commit.
