From 9ca834bd404c2b1e1e7010e7c22c5a1810fd7cd5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nick Alcock Date: Wed, 8 Mar 2023 19:42:57 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] mfd: stmpe-spi: Remove MODULE_LICENSE in non-modules 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.
