Message:

Additions: relicence components needed for Linux shared folders to MIT.
bugref:9109: Shared folders: update to match in-kernel code more closely
This change makes the code on which the Linux kernel shared folder patch is
based MIT-licenced, so that the version in the Linux kernel can be too. This
would make it easier to move code back and forth.
