Here was the suggestion that I received as a change to the license:

licenses.  You may choose to be licensed under the terms of the GNU General 
Public License (GPL) Version 2, available from the file COPYING in the main 
directory of this source tree, or, when using this code outside the context of 
the linux kernel or other GPL works, the OpenIB.org BSD license below

The differences between this version and the one used by OpenIB is slight, but 
it does clarify that the version in Linux is GPL, which is the case.
