Hello,

SPDX-License-Identifier: BSD-3-Clause might be wrong in the following 4 files 
from Android Open Source Project (AOSP):

include/android_bootloader_message.h
include/sparse_format.h
include/dt_table.h
include/android_image.h

As you can see in the comments the content is from AOSP.

But these files have Apache License, Version 2.0 in AOSP:
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/bootable/recovery/+/master/bootloader_message/include/bootloader_message/bootloader_message.h
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/system/core/+/28fa5bc347390480fe190294c6c385b6a9f0d68b/libsparse/sparse_format.h
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/system/libufdt/+/2626d8b9e4d8e8c6cc67ceb1dc4e05a47779785c/utils/src/dt_table.h

I am afraid, that there could be a license compatibility problem with creating 
one binary from both source files with GPL2-only license and source files with 
Apache 2 license.

Am I wrong? Is it possible to re-license from Apache 2 to BSD 3 license if 
there are only simple structs and defines in those files?
With best regards,
