  I agree that OAFS is in this sense "Proprietary". But the source that is
  coming from openafs.org is truly shared. So maybe it could still be
  possible to get a special permission from ac to put "GPL" in this
  particular case. Maybe accompanied with a detailed MODULE_DESCRIPTION
  pointing to the openafs.org. In this way we still could get some kernel
  debug from these guys, one day.
