We should probably ask Valdis on what happened there.

Even the old exFAT v1.2.24 from Galaxy S7 is using "either version 2
of the License, or (at your option) any later version".
You can go check it yourself by searching "G930F" from
http://opensource.samsung.com.

I'm guessing he probably used "GPL-2.0" during his clean-up.
