This is an utterly ridiculous suggestion. The project should bring
itself into compliance by adding the appropriate notices and continue
as before. It is virtually impossible to contact all of the
contributors to the kernel to ask for forgiveness, even though this is
required by GPLv2. You are making a mountain out of a molehill.
