Subject: [patch 6/9] ceph: quota: Cleanup license mess

Precise and non-ambiguous license information is important. The recently
added aegis header file has a SPDX license identifier, which is nice, but
at the same time it has a contradictionary license boiler plate text.

  SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0

Oh well.

As the other ceph related files are licensed under the GPL v2 only, it's
assumed that the SPDX id is correct and the boiler plate was randomly
copied into that patch.

Remove the boiler plate as it is wrong and even if correct it is redundant.

P.S.: This patch is part of a larger cleanup, but independent of other
      patches and is intended to be picked up by the maintainer directly.
