"After years of encouragement from the OpenBSD community for others to use Reyk Floeter's free atheros wireless driver, it seems that the Linux world is finally listening. Unfortunately, they seem to think that they can strip the BSD license right out of it." Update: The issue has been fixed, but sadly, lkml.org is down, so I cannot give any links just yet.

There doesn't seem to be any stealling going on at all.
It seems that is was originally licenced under the GPLv2 (and also under the BSD) and it's been included in the -mm kernel under the GPLv2.
I don't see what the problem is.
