I think it is OK to change the file to GPL2. I'm not sure if changing coreboot parts to 2.0+ is an option. I believe the use of 2+ in U-Boot is for fairly narrow reasons, but I'm not sure if that is documented anywhere.

Ugh. In so far as anything can be re-licensed, who did it all originally? I suspect coreboot isn't interested in 2.0+ but we can do 2.0-only.
For this patch, coreboot commit b9a7877568cf ("rockchip/*: refactor edp driver") introduces the related change to src/soc/rockchip/common/edp.c renamed from .../rk3288/edp.c, which was introduced at coreboot commit 40f558e8f4f7 ("rockchip: support display").

The sign-offs are:
$ git log b9a7877568cf -- src/soc/rockchip/{common,rk3288}/edp.c \ | grep -i "Signed-off-by:" | sort -u > Original-Signed-off-by: huang lin <hl@rock-chips.com> > Original-Signed-off-by: Julius Werner <jwerner@chromium.org> > Original-Signed-off-by: Lin Huang <hl@rock-chips.com> > Signed-off-by: Patrick Georgi <pgeorgi@chromium.org> > Signed-off-by: Stefan Reinauer <reinauer@chromium.org>
That file at that refactor-commit has two more fixes I'm interested in, and it's not the only file things could be ported from. If I run the above on a wider list of files upto current master I get 16 authors or 20 signoffs with duplicates (including e.g. original-signed-off-by), most of them either @google.com, @chromium.org, or @rock-chips.com.

(There's also hdmi{.c,.h} licensed w/ GPL-2.0-or-later, and clock{.c,.h} for which the U-Boot counterpart is already "GPL-2.0" assuming thats GPL-2.0-only, so I've excluded both.)
Right, sorry. I mean, on the U-Boot side, where did things come from? I wonder how we got a different license text, and perhaps if we shouldn't just re-port the coreboot code over as a clean/clear way to re-license it to GPL-2.0-only.
