[PATCH v2 0/7] MODULE_LICENSE removals, first tranche

[Nick Alcock]

This series, based on current modules-next, is part of a treewide cleanup
suggested by Luis Chamberlain, to remove the LICENSE_MODULE usage from
files/objects that are not tristate.  Due to recent changes to kbuild, these
uses are now problematic.  See the commit logs for more details.

(The commit log prefixes and Cc lists are automatically determined using
the script mentioned below.  I've eyeballed them, and they seem reasonable:
my apologies if they are not.)

This is a small initial tranche to see if the general approach is valid:
larger tranches can follow if desired and if these patches seem OK.
I'll be sending a second 24-patch tranche in a few hours if this
one meets with general approval.

(In total, there are 121 patches in this series.)


Differences from v1:
 - just remove MODULE_LICENSE, don't comment it out
 - Cc: paid maintainers as well as unpaid ones
 - improvements to the prefix determination code (notable in
   PCI: versatile in particular)
