IANAL and thinking about licenses generally gives me a headache, but I
believe the current XFree86 license is not GPL compatible (there was a
lot of noise about the XFree86 license change). Maybe it would be better
to use the XOrg file (forked from XFree86 before the license change) as
a base:

hw/xfree86/input/mouse/pnp.c
