No licence

Would you mind adding a licence file?
I recommend the default licence, which big enterprises (e.g. Google) expect us developers to freely use the code: https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0

Pascal,

Added GPLv3 at: 6f5a405

I know this is not ideal for many users, and that this is an educational repo, but I've been doing GPL by default just to make sure I don't forget to GPL something of value and get ripped off.

Also this repo will maybe eventually move into: https://github.com/************/linux-kernel-module-cheat/tree/657c59249e56d861bb0a437a1b1c757797281910#java so preparing for that.

Is there any non-trivial non-educational content that you want to use from here? The minimal examples should be fine to reuse on any license, just change variable names. If there is something non-trivial that you need, let me know what it is and I'll likely give permission for use in another license right here.

Also note that a lot of my content is also on Stack Overflow, and if that is the case, it is forcibly also CC BY-SA 4.0 (International).

Thanks, that you added a license. The type of license is of course you decision and yes, a variable rename should be fine, if copy and pasted. The main issue is, if no license is set, no one is allowed to even download/clone this repo (which could be include using the fork button?). More details can be found here.
This issue can be resolved.
