Now that the SPDX tag is in all comedi files, that identifies the
license in a specific and legally-defined manner. So the extra GPL text
wording can be removed as it is no longer needed at all.
This is done on a quest to remove the 700+ different ways that files in
the kernel describe the GPL license text. And there's unneeded stuff
like the address (sometimes incorrect) for the FSF which is never
needed.
No copyright headers or other non-license-description text was removed.

It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to
audit the kernel tree for correct licenses.
Update the drivers/staging/comedi files files with the correct SPDX
license identifier based on the license text in the file itself. The
SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used
instead of the full boiler plate text.
This work is based on a script and data from Thomas Gleixner, Philippe
Ombredanne, and Kate Stewart.

A 8254 timer/counter is commonly used on data acquisition boards to provide
the internal pacer clock used to acquire analog input samples. Some boards
also to allow the timers to be used externally.
Currently the 8254 timers are supported by comedi using the 8253.h header
and a number of inline functions. This works for the internal pacer clock
but requires the drivers to implement subdevice code necessary to use the
timers externally.
Introduce a new module to support both the internal pacer clock and the
external counter subdevice. This will allow removing a bunch of duplicated
code in the drivers and standardizes the comedi 8254 timer support.
This implementation is based on the 8253.h inline functions and the various
subdevice functionality in the comedi drivers.
