The current GPL only licensing on the device trees makes it very impractical for other software components licensed under another license.
To make it easier to reuse them, re-license the the device trees for Freescale (now NXP) SoCs and boards under GPLv2+/X11 dual license.
Same trend is followed in linux.

Notes: V2: - Change license from X11 only to GPL2.0+/X11 dual license. - Updated the commit message accordingly.
OK. But what does the kernel have for these exact files? If it's GPL2.0+/X11 dual, then this is just a normal sync with Linux Kernel v4.xx and you should say that in the commit message. If you haven't gotten these merged to a Linux Kernel release, are they in -next there? Thanks!
