[PATCH] powerpc: add missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() macros
From: Jeff Johnson
Date: Sat Jun 15 2024 - 13:08:17 EST
With ARCH=powerpc, make allmodconfig && make W=1 C=1 reports:
WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() in arch/powerpc/kernel/rtas_flash.o
WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() in arch/powerpc/sysdev/rtc_cmos_setup.o
WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() in arch/powerpc/platforms/pseries/papr_scm.o
WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() in arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/spufs/spufs.o
WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() in arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/cbe_thermal.o
WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() in arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/cpufreq_spudemand.o
WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION() in arch/powerpc/platforms/cell/cbe_powerbutton.o
Add the missing invocation of the MODULE_DESCRIPTION() macro to all
files which have a MODULE_LICENSE().
This includes 85xx/t1042rdb_diu.c and chrp/nvram.c which, although
they did not produce a warning with the powerpc allmodconfig
configuration, may cause this warning with other configurations.

Corrections to these descriptions are welcomed. I'm not an expert in
this code so in most cases I've taken these descriptions directly from
code comments, Kconfig descriptions, or git logs. History has shown
that in some cases these are originally wrong due to cut-n-paste
errors, and in other cases the drivers have evolved such that the
original information is no longer accurate.
