So, what you need to do is this:

Take the tarball upstream provides and unpack it. Then, remove the files which
we do not have permission to redistribute, and then make a new tarball with the
same basename as the upstream tarball, but append "-clean" to the end of it.
Finally, in the spec file, refer to the -clean tarball (without a URL), and add
comments that point to the original upstream tarball and how you generated the
new -clean tarball:

# The upstream tarball contains icons which we could not determine the
licensing # for. The original source was found here: http://foo.bar/baz.tar.gz
# To generate the clean tarball, run:
# tar xvfz baz.tar.gz
# rm -rf baz/icons/*.png
# tar cvfz baz-clean.tar.gz baz/
Source: baz-clean.tar.gz
