  The alfred project shares files with other projects hosted on open-mesh.org
and kernel.org. These other projects use the filename
LICENSES/preferred/GPL-2.0 for the GPL-2.0 license. It is therefore
required to also use the same name for the license file when these files
reference this in their license header.

The SPDX header was imported from Linux but the actual GPL-2.0 text was
downloaded from https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-2.0.txt
