Subject: [PATCH v3 01/12] platform/chrome: Make license text and module license match.

The license text is specifying "GPLv2" but the MODULE_LICENSE is set to
GPL which means GNU Public License v2 or later. When MODULE_LICENSE and
boiler plate does not match, go for boiler plate license.

- Add new patches to match license text with MODULE_LICENSE (Dmitry)
- If there is a conflict between the license notice and MODULE_LICENSE
  go by license notice not MODULE_LICENSE. (Dmitry)
- Reintroduced again the patch for the rtc-cros-ec driver as license
  should be GPL v2-only.
- Removed '[PATCH 7/9] pwm: cros-ec: Switch to SPDX identifier.' as
  maintainer told me that I don't need to resend.

  series as it was applied.
- s/Chrome OS/ChromeOS/
