PCI: Add SPDX GPL-2.0 when no license was specified b24413180f56 ("License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license") added SPDX GPL-2.0 to several PCI files that previously contained no license information. Add SPDX GPL-2.0 to all other PCI files that did not contain any license information and hence were under the default GPL version 2 license of the kernel.

MicroSemi Switchtec management interface driver Microsemi's "Switchtec" line of PCI switch devices is already well supported by the kernel with standard PCI switch drivers. However, the Switchtec device advertises a special management endpoint with a separate PCI function address and class code. This endpoint enables some additional functionality which includes: * Packet and Byte Counters * Switch Firmware Upgrades * Event and Error logs * Querying port link status * Custom user firmware commands Add a switchtec kernel module which provides PCI driver that exposes a char device. The char device provides userspace access to this interface through read, write and (optionally) poll calls. A userspace tool and library which utilizes this interface is available at [1]. This tool takes inspiration (and borrows some code) from nvme-cli [2]. The tool is largely complete at this time but additional features may be added in the future.
