Subject: kernel: replace FSF address with web source in license notices

A few years ago the FSF moved and "59 Temple Place" is wrong.  Having this
still in our source files feels old and unmaintained.

As https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html suggests, we replace the
postal address with "<http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>".
