    net/phy/bcm87xx: Add MODULE_LICENSE("GPL") to GPL driver · 9913b8c8
    Peter Hüwe authored
    Currently the driver has no MODULE_LICENSE attribute in its source which
    results in a kernel taint if I load this:
    
    root@(none):~# modprobe bcm87xx
    bcm87xx: module license 'unspecified' taints kernel.
    
    Since the first lines of the source code clearly state:
     * This file is subject to the terms and conditions of the GNU General
     * Public License.  See the file "COPYING" in the main directory of this
     * archive for more details.
    I think it's safe to add the MODULE_LICENSE("GPL") macro and thus remove
    the kernel taint.
