The ISC license is considered as not recommended in "Linux kernel licensing rules". It should only be used for existing code or for importing code from a different project with that license. But the kernel still has the similar sounding MIT/Expat license under the preferred licenses. Switching to this license for this relatively new file should therefore allow batman-adv to better follow the new licensing rules.
