Correct, this is explicitly stated in the LICENSE file:
[quote]
As of July 2013, contributions under version 2 of the GNU General Public
License (and no later version) are only accepted for the following files
or directories: bsd-user/, linux-user/, hw/vfio/, hw/xen/xen_pt*.

Ideally we would get all QEMU CXL contributors to agree to re-license
to the GPL-2.0-or-later, unless the code has been copied from another
project which was GPL-2.0-only thus forcing our code.

Please follow the LICENSE file which is explicit about QEMU's views
per the quoted text above.
