The SPDX License List version 1.19 now contains an official entry for
the IBM-pibs license. However, instead of our suggestion "ibm-pibs",
the SPDX License List uses "IBM-pibs", with the following rationale:
"The reason being that all other SPDX License List short identifiers
tend towards using capital letters unless spelling a word. I'd prefer
to be consistent to this end".
Change the license IDs to use the official name.

This commit adapts the files that were derived from PIBS (PowerPC
Initialization and Boot Software) codeto using SPDX License
Identifiers.
So far, SPDX has not assigned an official License ID for the PIBS
license yet, so this should be considered preliminary.
Note that the following files contained incorrect license information:
arch/powerpc/cpu/ppc4xx/4xx_uart.c
arch/powerpc/cpu/ppc4xx/start.S
arch/powerpc/include/asm/ppc440.h
These files included, in addition to the GPL-2.0 / ibm-pibs dual
license as inherited from PIBS, a GPL-2.0+ license header which was
obviously incorrect. This has been removed.

This patch moves some ppc4xx related headers from the common include
directory (include/) to the powerpc specific one
(arch/powerpc/include/asm/). This way to common include directory is not
so cluttered with files.

It was brought to our attention that U-Boot contains code derived from the
IBM OpenBIOS source code originally provided with some of the older PowerPC
4xx development boards. As a result, the original license of this code has
been carried in the various files for a number of years in the U-Boot project.
IBM is dual-licensing the IBM code contributions already present in U-Boot
under either the terms of the GNU General Public License version 2, or the
original code license already present.
