When U-Boot started using SPDX tags we were among the early adopters and
there weren't a lot of other examples to borrow from. So we picked the
area of the file that usually had a full license text and replaced it
with an appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier: entry. Since then, the
Linux Kernel has adopted SPDX tags and they place it as the very first
line in a file (except where shebangs are used, then it's second line)
and with slightly different comment styles than us.
In part due to community overlap, in part due to better tag visibility
and in part for other minor reasons, switch over to that style.
This commit changes all instances where we have a single declared
license in the tag as both the before and after are identical in tag
contents. There's also a few places where I found we did not have a tag
and have introduced one.

Standard Debian powerpc and powerpcspe systems only include hard-float
libgcc in their native compilers, which causes scary build warnings when
building U-Boot.
Debian and other PowerPC-supporting distributions used to provide libgcc
and other libraries in a "nof" (soft-float) form in the "multilib"
packages. As they were completely unused by the distribution and
therefore tended to be very buggy it was decided to save some time on
the part of the maintainers and build-servers by removing them.
Admittedly, right now the linker warnings do not indicate any problems,
as the included routines do not use any floating point at all.
The concern is that if floating-point code were ever added it might
cause hard-float code to be unexpectedly included in U-Boot without
generating a hard error. This would cause unexplained crashes or
indeterminate results at runtime.
The easiest way to resolve this is to borrow the routines that U-Boot
needs from the Linux kernel, which has the same issue.
Specifically, the routines are: _ashldi3(), _ashrdi3(), and _lshrdi3().
They were borrowed from arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_32.S as of v2.6.38-rc5,
commit 85e2efbb1db9a18d218006706d6e4fbeb0216213, and are GPLv2+.
The Makefile framework was copied from the U-Boot ARM port.
