I do not know if this is a variant that has a common name or has been used in other places, but if not you would simply give it a custom name and include
the full text, perhaps with a comment to make it easy for others to
understand. For example:

Comment:
The copyright holders reserve all rights.
They use a custom BSD 2-clause license that has the first and third clauses
from the standard BSD-3-clause license.

Hello,
In the midst of performing QA work on unworkable [1], I found the buf.c
file with the following copyright notice on its header:

This is not the BSD 2-clause variant, as it includes the non-endorsement clause from the 3-clause one, and excludes the actual second clause.
Does anyone know if that is actually a BSD variant, and if so, what its
name is? If it is not a BSD variant, how should it be dealt with/named?
