net/8390: Remove redundant make dependencies

The hydra, zorro8390 and mcf8390 drivers all #include "lib8390.c" and
have no need for 8390.o. modinfo confirms no dependency on 8390.ko.
Drop the redundant dependency from the Makefile. objdump confirms
that this patch has no effect on the module binaries.

The superfluous additions of 8390.o were introduced in
commit 644570b83026 ("8390: Move the 8390 related drivers").

License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.

For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139

and resulted in the first patch in this series.

If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930

and resulted in the second patch in this series.

- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:

SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1

and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).

- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

drivers/net: delete the really obsolete 8390 based 10Mbit ISA drivers

This is an area I know all too well, after being author of several 8390
drivers, and maintainer of all 8390 drivers during a large part of their
active lifecycle.

To that end, I can say this with a reasonable degree of confidence.
The drivers deleted here represent the earliest (as in early 1990)
hardware and/or rare hardware. The remaining hardware not deleted
here is the more modern/sane of the lot, with ISA-PnP and jumperless
"soft configuration" like the wd and smc cards had.

The original ne2000 driver (ne.c) gets a pass at this time since
AT/LANTIC based cards that could be both ne2000 or wd-like (with
shared memory) and with jumperless configuration were made in the
mid to late 1990's, and performed reasonably well for their era.

drivers/net: delete 8390 based EISA drivers.

The NS8390 chip was essentially the 1st widespread PC ethernet
chip, starting its life on 8 bit ISA cards in the late 1980s.
Even with better technologies available (bus mastering etc)
the 8390 managed to get used on a few rare EISA cards in the
early to mid 1990s.

The EISA bus in the x86 world was largely confined to systems
ranging from 486 to 586 (essentially 200MHz or lower, and less
than 100MB RAM) -- i.e. machines unlikely to be still in service,
and even less likely to be running a 3.9+ kernel.

On top of that, only one of the five really ever was considered
non-experimental; the smc-ultra32 was the one -- since it was
largely just an EISA version of the popular smc-ultra ISA card.
All the others had such a tiny user base that they simply never
could be considered anything more than experimental.

drivers/net: remove orphaned references to micro channel

We threw away the microchannel support, but the removal wasn't
completely trivial since there was namespace overlap with the
machine check support, and hence some orphaned dependencies
survived the deletion. This attempts to sweep those up and
send them to the bit-bucket.

net: add support for NS8390 based eth controllers on some ColdFire CPU boards

A number of older ColdFire CPU based boards use NS8390 based network
controllers. Most use the Davicom 9008F or the UMC 9008F. This driver
provides the support code to get these devices working on these platforms.

Generally the NS8390 based eth device is direct connected via the general
purpose bus of the ColdFire CPU. So its addressing and interrupt setup is
fixed on each of the different platforms (classic platform setup).

This driver is based on the other drivers/net/ethernet/8390 drivers, and
includes the lib8390.c code. It uses the existing definitions of the
board NS8390 device addresses, interrupts and access types from the
arch/m68k/include/asm/mcf8390.h, but moves the IO access functions into
the driver code and out of that header.

drivers/net: delete all code/drivers depending on CONFIG_MCA

The support for CONFIG_MCA is being removed, since the 20
year old hardware simply isn't capable of meeting today's
software demands on CPU and memory resources.

This commit removes any MCA specific net drivers, and removes
any MCA specific probe/support code from drivers that were
doing a dual ISA/MCA role.
