NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use of
the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work". Also
note that the GPL below is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, but
the instance of code that it refers to (the Linux kernel) is copyrighted by
me and others who actually wrote it.

Also note that the only valid version of the GPL as far as the kernel is
concerned is _this_ particular version of the license (ie v2, not v2.2 or
v3.x or whatever), unless explicitly otherwise stated.
