${ipxe_src}/src/drivers/usb/xhci.c indicates GPLv2+ in its file header comment.
But there is this page, http://ipxe.org/licensing, indicating that to
be absolutely sure of the license, I have to run something like "make
bin/808610de.rom.licence". And I don't know which target to build yet,
hence my uncertainty about the license :-)
