Replace macro __ATTR with __ATTR_NULL since the former one is
unnecessary for gasket_sysfs_attr array terminator. Also silence the
checkpatch.pl warning:
WARNING:Symbolic permissions 'S_IRUGO' are not preferred. Consider using
octal
permissions '0444'.

In an attempt to start to clean up the monstrosity of the sysfs abuse in
the gasket driver, let's remove code that is not used at all. The
gasket_sysfs_register_show() function is never used, so delete it.

Now that the SPDX tag is in all gasket files, that identifies the
license in a specific and legally-defined manner. So the extra GPL text
wording can be removed as it is no longer needed at all.
This is done on a quest to remove the 700+ different ways that files in
the kernel describe the GPL license text. And there's unneeded stuff
like the address (sometimes incorrect) for the FSF which is never
needed.

It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to
audit the kernel tree for correct licenses.
Fix up the all of the staging gasket files to have a proper SPDX
identifier, based on the license text in the file itself. The SPDX
identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of
the full boiler plate text.

The Gasket (Google ASIC Software, Kernel Extensions, and Tools) kernel
framework is a generic, flexible system that supports thin kernel
drivers. Gasket kernel drivers are expected to handle opening and
closing devices, mmap'ing BAR space as requested, a small selection of
ioctls, and handling page table translation (covered below). Any other
functions should be handled by userspace code.
The Gasket common module is not enough to run a device. In order to
customize the Gasket code for a given piece of hardware, a device
specific module must be created. At a minimum, this module must define a
struct gasket_driver_desc containing the device-specific data for use by
the framework; in addition, the module must declare an __init function
that calls gasket_register_device with the module's gasket_driver_desc
struct. Finally, the driver must define an exit function that calls
gasket_unregister_device with the module's gasket_driver_desc struct.
One of the core assumptions of the Gasket framework is that precisely
one process is allowed to have an open write handle to the device node
at any given time. (That process may, once it has one write handle, open
any number of additional write handles.) This is accomplished by
tracking open and close data for each driver instance.
