Since commit 1fffe7a34c89 ("script: modpost: emit a warning when the
description is missing"), a module without a MODULE_DESCRIPTION() will
result in a warning when built with make W=1. Recently, multiple
developers have been eradicating these warnings treewide, and very few
(if any) are left, so please don't introduce a new one :)

Please add the missing MODULE_DESCRIPTION()
