After making the brcmstb_gisb driver modular with 707a4cdf

 ("bus:
brcmstb_gisb: Allow building as module") Guenter reported that mips
allmodconfig failed to link because board_be_handler was referenced.

Thomas indicated that if we were to continue making the brcmstb_gisb
driver modular for MIPS we would need to introduce a function that
allows setting the board_be_handler and export that function towards
modules.

This is what is being done here: board_be_handler is made static and is
now settable with a mips_set_be_handler() function which is exported.

All of the remaining callers pass current into force_sig so
remove the task parameter to make this obvious and to make
misuse more difficult in the future.

This also makes it clear force_sig passes current into force_sig_info.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard...

We are going to split <linux/sched/signal.h> out of <linux/sched.h>, which
will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files.

Create a trivial placeholder <linux/sched/signal.h> file that just
maps to <linux/sched.h> to make this patch obviously correct and
bisectable.

Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

The MIPS implementation of die() forgets to call notify_die() and thus notifiers
registered via register_die_notifier() are not called.  This results in kgdb not
being activated on exceptions.

The only subtlety is that notify_die declares its regs argument w/o const, so
the const had to be removed from mips die() as well.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
