It's your work after all, so you get to license the work however you 
want (inside the kernel project's licensing requirements, of course), so 
maintainers won't interfere with that.

I'm suggesting the license double-check because the whole driver is one 
piece of work, so it's better to be extra clear (you DO want to make 
sure things are clear when it comes to copyright, compliance & etc.) and 
make it as consistent as possible, but ultimately it's of course down to 
you. I think you may keep things as-is if others don't voice their 
concerns in the coming days.
