When U-Boot started using SPDX tags we were among the early adopters and
there weren't a lot of other examples to borrow from. So we picked the
area of the file that usually had a full license text and replaced it
with an appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier: entry. Since then, the
Linux Kernel has adopted SPDX tags and they place it as the very first
line in a file (except where shebangs are used, then it's second line)
and with slightly different comment styles than us.
In part due to community overlap, in part due to better tag visibility
and in part for other minor reasons, switch over to that style.
This commit changes all instances where we have a single declared
license in the tag as both the before and after are identical in tag
contents. There's also a few places where I found we did not have a tag
and have introduced one.

If we built POST on PPC's that didn't enable CONFIG_SYS_POST_FPU we'd
get the following warning with newer toolchains:
powerpc-linux-gnu-ld: Warning: lib_powerpc/fpu/libpostpowerpcfpu.o
uses hard float, libpost.o uses soft float
We actually worked around this sometime ago with the following commit:

FPU POST: fix warnings when building with 2.18 binutils
However, this only took into effect if CONFIG_SYS_POST_FPU was enabled.
We can simply move the GNU_FPOST_ATTR out of the CONFIG_SYS_POST_FPU
ifdef block to address the issue.

As discussed on the list, move "arch/ppc" to "arch/powerpc" to
better match the Linux directory structure.
Please note that this patch also changes the "ppc" target in
MAKEALL to "powerpc" to match this new infrastructure. But "ppc"
is kept as an alias for now, to not break compatibility with
scripts using this name.

When compile u-boot with the 2.18 binutils the following
warning messages for each object file in post/lib_ppc/fpu/ is
produced at the linking stage:
post/libpost.a(acc1.o) uses hard float, u-boot uses soft-float
...
This is because of the fact that, in general, the soft-float and
hard-float ABIs are incompatible; the 2.18 binutils do checking
of the Tag_GNU_Power_ABI_FP attribute of the files to be linked, and
produce the worning like above if these are not compatible.
The incompatibility of ABIs is concerned only the float values:
e.g. the soft-float ABI assumes the float argument passing in the
pair of rX registers, and the hard-float ABI assumes passing of
the float argument in the fX register. When we don't pass the float
arguments between the functions compiled with different floatness,
then such an application will work correctly.
This is the case for the FPU POST: u-boot (compiled with soft-float)
doesn't pass to (and doesn't get from) the FPU POST functions any
floats; there are no functions exported from the post/lib_ppc/fpu/
objects which would work with float parameters/returns too. So, we
can reassure the linker not to worry about the difference in ABI
attributes of linking files just by setting the 'soft-float'
attribute for the objects in post/lib_ppc/fpu. And this patch does
this.
Also, to avoid passing both soft- and hard-float options in CFLAGS
when compiling the files from post/lib_ppc/fpu (which is OK, but
looks rather dirty) this patch removes the soft-float string from
CFLAGS in post/lib_ppc/fpu/Makefile.
