Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM
as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate.

Now that the SPDX tag is in all comedi 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.
No copyright headers or other non-license-description text was removed.

It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to
audit the kernel tree for correct licenses.
Update the drivers/staging/comedi files files with the correct SPDX
license 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.
This work is based on a script and data from Thomas Gleixner, Philippe
Ombredanne, and Kate Stewart.

Setting the `CONFIG_COMEDI_USB_DRIVERS` kernel configuration option
makes the main "comedi" module depend on the "usbcore" module. But
perhaps the machine has no USB controllers (or they have been disabled),
in which case the "usbcore" module may have been pulled in
unnecessarily. Only a few low-level Comedi drivers require USB support.
The Comedi USB support functions are all in "comedi_usb.c". Turn it
into a separate module so we don't have to pull in the "usbcore" and
"usb_common" modules unnecessarily.

Addresses change...
Remove the paragraph with the FSF address from all the comedi source
files.
Also, remove the paragraph about the finding the complete GPL in the
COPYING file since it's unnecessary.

Allow the comedi usb drivers to pass a 'context' from their (*probe)
functions to the comedi core's comedi_usb_auto_config(). This 'context'
is then passed to comedi_auto_config() and then to the comedi_driver's
(*auto_attach).

Separate the comedi_usb_* functions out of drivers.c into a new
source file, comedi_usb.c. This allows conditionally building
support for comedi USB drivers into the comedi core without the
need for the #if'defery. Fix the Kconfig and Makefile appropriately.
For aesthetic reasons, add some whitespace to the Makefile to keep
everything lined up.
Group all the comedi_usb_* prototypes into one place in comedidev.h.
Protect these prototypes with an #ifdef so that building a comedi
usb driver without USB support will cause a build error. This will
normally not happen as long as the comedi USB driver is placed in
the proper group in the Kconfig.
Remove the #include<linux/usb.h> from comedidev.h and drivers.c. This
include is only needed by the comedi USB driver support code and the
USB drivers. The include should occur in those files.
Removing the include of usb.h exposed a couple drivers that need
<linux/interrupt.h> and <linux/sched.h>. Add the missing includes.
