[PATCH v3] powerpc: Add missing SPDX license identifiers

[J Lovejoy]

I just saw this and have not followed the entire thread from the 
beginning, but if you are unsure if a given license text to something on 
the SPDX License List, I highly recommend using the SPDX License-diff 
browser extension / add-on (for Chrome or Firefox) - once you have that, 
you can simply highlight a text in your browser window and it will tell 
you if it matches or how far off it is if not.

If a license is NOT a match to anything on the SPDX License List, please 
submit it to the SPDX legal team here: 
https://tools.spdx.org/app/submit_new_license/ (and preferably then tag 
me in the Github issue, my Github ide is @jlovejoy ) Please make sure to 
include that it's in the LInux kernel and a link to where you found it.

More about requesting a new license be added to the SPDX License List 
can be found here: 
https://github.com/spdx/license-list-XML/blob/master/DOCS/request-new-license.md

Thanks!
