Subject: video: fbdev/mmp: add MODULE_LICENSE

From: Arnd Bergmann <[email protected]>

commit c1530ac5a3ce93a1f02adabc4508b5fbf862dfe2 upstream.

Kbuild complains about the lack of a license tag in this driver:

WARNING: modpost: missing MODULE_LICENSE() in drivers/video/fbdev/mmp/mmp_disp.o

This adds the license, author and description tags.
