[PATCH] net: ethernet: fs_enet: Add missing MODULE_LICENSE

From: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>
Date: 2021-01-05 02:23:35

Since commit 1d6cd3929360 ("modpost: turn missing MODULE_LICENSE()
into error") the ppc32_allmodconfig build fails with:

  ERROR: modpost: missing MODULE_LICENSE() in drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/fs_enet/mii-fec.o
  ERROR: modpost: missing MODULE_LICENSE() in drivers/net/ethernet/freescale/fs_enet/mii-bitbang.o

Add the missing MODULE_LICENSEs to fix the build. Both files include a
copyright header indicating they are GPL v2.

Hi Michael

The use of "GPL v2" has been deprecated. Please use just "GPL". There
is a discussion about this here:

Ah sorry, I just grepped for "GPL v2" and saw lots of examples so copied
that. Will post a new version using "GPL".

cheers
