I'm not able to figure out the licensing of this. https://netlib.org/benchmark/dhry-c appears to be silent on the topic?
Searching the internet, people claim it's just public domain...
My topic/dhry-unsquashed branch has my rationale:
FreeBSD uses BSD-2-Clause for this, which is probably the closest to the original intention of the authors. Augment with GPL-2.0-only, as this now calls into internal Linux APIs.
