[PATCH 14/27] power: reset: mt6397: remove MODULE_LICENSE in non-modules

From: Nick Alcock <hidden>
Date: 2023-02-24 15:11:08
Also in: linux-arm-kernel, linux-mediatek, linux-pm, lkml
Subsystem: mediatek board level shutdown drivers, system reset/shutdown drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Sen Chu, Sean Wang, Macpaul Lin, Sebastian Reichel, Linus Torvalds

Since commit 8b41fc4454e ("kbuild: create modules.builtin without
Makefile.modbuiltin or tristate.conf"), MODULE_LICENSE declarations
are used to identify modules. As a consequence, uses of the macro
in non-modules will cause modprobe to misidentify their containing
object file as a module when it is not (false positives), and modprobe
might succeed rather than failing with a suitable error message.

So remove it in the files in this commit, none of which can be built as
modules.
