Subject: [PATCH 13/17] regulator: stm32-pwr: remove MODULE_LICENSE in non-modules
Date: Thu,  2 Mar 2023 21:17:55 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230302211759.30135-14-nick.alcock@oracle.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230302211759.30135-1-nick.alcock@oracle.com>

Since commit 8b41fc4454e ("kbuild: create modules.builtin without
Makefile.modbuiltin or tristate.conf"), MODULE_LICENSE declarations
are used to identify modules. As a consequence, uses of the macro
in non-modules will cause modprobe to misidentify their containing
object file as a module when it is not (false positives), and modprobe
might succeed rather than failing with a suitable error message.

So remove it in the files in this commit, none of which can be built as
modules.
