[PATCH 8/9] drivers/gpio: make gpio-xgene.c explicitly non-modular

From: Paul Gortmaker
Date: Sun Mar 27 2016 - 11:45:30 EST


The Kconfig currently controlling compilation of this code is:

drivers/gpio/Kconfig:config GPIO_XGENE
drivers/gpio/Kconfig: bool "APM X-Gene GPIO controller support"

...meaning that it currently is not being built as a module by anyone.

Lets remove the modular code that is essentially orphaned, so that
when reading the driver there is no doubt it is builtin-only.

Since module_platform_driver() uses the same init level priority as
builtin_platform_driver() the init ordering remains unchanged with
this commit.

Also note that MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE is a no-op for non-modular code.

We also delete the MODULE_LICENSE tag etc. since all that information
is already contained at the top of the file in the comments.
