Subject: [media] dvb-usb-dibusb-mc-common: Add MODULE_LICENSE

From: Ben Hutchings <[email protected]>

commit bf05b65a9fe5f6a6dd3e72cab2aacd8b5b96e41d upstream.

dvb-usb-dibusb-mc-common is licensed under GPLv2, and if we don't say so then it won't even load since it needs a GPL-only symbol.

Fixes e91455a1495a ("[media] dvb-usb: split out common parts of dibusb")
