net/qla3xxx: Convert to SPDX license identifiers
All files related to this driver contain the following notice: See LICENSE.qla3xxx for copyright and licensing details. LICENSE.qla3xxx can be found in Documentation/networking/device_drivers/qlogic/. The file contains: - A copyright notice This copyright notice is redundant as all files contain the same copyright notice already - A license notice You may modify and redistribute the device driver code under the GNU General Public License (a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit A) published by the Free Software Foundation (version 2 or a later version). This can be replaced with the corresponding SPDX license identifier (GPL-2.0-or-later) in the source files which reference this license file. - A license for the device firmware This license is pointless in the context of the kernel as the firmware is not distributed as part of the kernel. LICENSE.qla2xxx contained exactly the same firmware license which was removed with commit bc3f957 ("[SCSI] qla2xxx: Update LICENSE.qla2xxx."). The firmware license is there due to the fact that the out of tree driver tarball which was available from the qlogic website contained the firmware binary. The firmware license in the qla3xxx license file got probably forgotten when the other qlogic license files were updated. Remove the notices and add the SPDX license identifier GPL-2.0-or-later to the source files. Finally remove the now redundant LICENSE.qla3xxx file.
