net: rtl8139: Fill in SPDX tag
The rtl8139 driver is derived from Etherboot driver, which is in
turn derived from Linux 8139too driver added in Linux 2.2.18pre14.
An undocumented change in Linux 2.4.10.2 added a new field to the
driver, MODULE_LICENSE("GPL"); . According to current Linux kernel
licensing rules, Documentation/process/license-rules.rst, quote:
"GPL" Module is licensed under GPL version 2. This
does not express any distinction between
GPL-2.0-only or GPL-2.0-or-later. The exact
license information can only be determined
via the license information in the
corresponding source files.
And since the code does not contain any "future" clause, the tag
is therefore GPL-2.0 only.
