Provide proper copyright notice and license information.

I originally didn't provide this information because I thought
MODULE_AUTHOR defined the copyright holder, and MODULE_LICENSE
defined the license. (So I figured the header was redundant.)

It may be redundant, but (IANAL) I expect the macros are more
interesting to machines (which can do things like handle GPL vs. non-GPL
symbols, and print out nice 'modinfo') and maybe programmers (who are
often more like machines than lawyers) than to lawyers.
