[Update license 1/1] drivers: clk: Update license for Intel N5X device

[teik.heng.chong]

From: Teik Heng Chong <teik.heng.chong@intel.com>

All the source code of clk-mem-n5x.c and clk-n5x.c are from Intel,
update the license to use both GPL2.0 and BSD-3 Clause because this
copy of code may used for open source and internal project.

OR is not a license so I think you should drop that word.

Also U-Boot is GPL so seems strange to use a different license for
these files. If it was wrong initially, perhaps add a 'Fixes' tag?

Looking at the linux kernel, it's normal to use "OR" for multiple
licenses.

OR is valid in SPDX license identifier expressions

As used in U-Boot, this effectively is an AND (since this code will be
linked with GPL code). As stated in the commit message, presumably this
is to allow use in other (BSD-licensed) projects. Tom, do we generally
allow this sort of thing? Is it OK for someone to come along later and
change the license back (e.g. make it GPL-only again)?

I *would* like to see a RB or AB from Siew Chin Lim, since he is the
original author of this code, but since it is copyright Intel I suppose
it is fine to leave him out...

Note this already is in master.  As it's all Intel commits, I figured
that was good enough for being able to do this kind of change.

As to dual licensing of C code, I'm not in favor of this, overall, no.
I understand why device trees do it.  And most of the other in-tree
examples here are places we import other code from and for good reason
(I'm thinking the Android related headers).

In this specific example, I'm going to assume that the rigorous legal
review I know Intel does in some cases would be done here as I'm not
sure how exactly drivers/clk/altera/clk-n5x.c could be used as-is
somewhere else, but I also see how about 90% of it could be shared with
some other project and not reference U-Boot specifics.
