Currently, mod->gpl_compatible is tristate; it is set to -1 by default,
then to 1 or 0 when MODULE_LICENSE() is found.
Maybe, -1 was chosen to represent the 'unknown' license, but it is not
useful.
The current code:
if (!mod->gpl_compatible)
check_for_gpl_usage(exp->export, basename, exp->name);
... only cares whether gpl_compatible is zero or not.
Change it to a bool type with the initial value 'true', which has no
functional change.
The default value should be 'true' instead of 'false'.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
