Subject: [PATCH 1/8] PCI: altera: make msi explicitly non-modular

The Kconfig currently controlling compilation of this code is:

drivers/pci/host/Kconfig:config PCIE_ALTERA_MSI
drivers/pci/host/Kconfig:       bool "Altera PCIe MSI feature"

...meaning that it currently is not being built as a module by anyone.

Lets remove the couple traces of modular infrastructure use, so that
when reading the driver there is no doubt it is builtin-only.

We also delete the MODULE_LICENSE tag etc. since all that information
was (or is now) contained at the top of the file in the comments.
