Subject: hwrng: bcm2835: fix MODULE_LICENSE tag
From: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@xxxxxxxx>
commit 22e8099f4f6621b8d165e238cdef2a1cf655e159 upstream.
The MODULE_LICENSE macro invocation must use either "GPL" or "GPL v2",
but not "GPLv2" in order to be detected by the module loader.
This fixes the allmodconfig build error:
FATAL: modpost: GPL-incompatible module bcm2835-rng.ko uses GPL-only symbol 'platform_driver_unregister'
