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.

The Comedi "8255" module is both a standalone Comedi device driver
module for simple devices with one or more 8255 "Programmable Peripheral
Interface" chips at known I/O base addresses (configured at run-time),
and a helper module to configure a 8255-based digital I/O subdevice for
other Comedi drivers.
Split the "8255 subdevice helper" functionality into a new module:
"comedi_8255", leaving the standalone 8255 Comedi driver in the "8255"
module.
The Comedi "detach" routine of the standalone "8255" driver needs to
retrieve the I/O base address passed to the "comedi_8255" module to set
up each subdevice in order to release the I/O port regions it requested
in its "attach" routine. The "comedi_8255" module stores it in a
"subdevice private" data structure that is no longer known to the "8255"
module, so add a new, exported function `subdev_8255_regbase()` to
retrieve it.
