Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default are files without license information under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPLV2. Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
which is in the kernels COPYING file:
NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".
otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.
Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX
license identifier. The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the
Linux syscall exception. SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.

It is used for limitation of buffer size during IOCTL such as FFU.
However, eMMC FW size is bigger than (512L*256).
(For instance, currently, Samsung eMMC FW size is over 300KB.)
So, it needs to increase to execute FFU.

Certain eMMC devices allow vendor specific device information to be read
via a sequence of vendor commands. These vendor commands must be issued
in sequence and an atomic fashion. One way to support this would be to
add an ioctl function for sending a sequence of commands to the device
atomically as proposed here. These multi commands are simple array of
the existing mmc_ioc_cmd structure.
The structure passed via the ioctl uses a __u64 type to specify the number
of commands (so that the structure is aligned on a 64-bit boundary) and a
zero length array as a header for list of commands to be issued. The
maximum number of commands that can be sent is determined by
MMC_IOC_MAX_CMDS (which defaults to 255 and should be more than
sufficient).
