[PATCH] ASoC: fsl: micfil: Use dual license micfil code

[Daniel Baluta]

From: Daniel Baluta <daniel.baluta@nxp.com>

We need this in order to easily reuse register definitions
and some functions with Sound Open Firmware driver.

According to Documentation/process/license-rules.rst:
    "Dual BSD/GPL"	The module is dual licensed under a GPL v2
			variant or BSD license choice. The exact
			variant of the BSD license can only be
			determined via the license information
			in the corresponding source files.

so use "Dual BSD/GPL" for license string.

Adding Sascha as he seems to have written a lot of the commits for the
driver including some features.  Leaving the full message for his
benefit.

Thanks!

[1/1] ASoC: fsl: micfil: Use dual license micfil code
      commit: f803ec63686dec863a33cad87218d7d99c4b5e92

All being well this means that it will be integrated into the linux-next
tree (usually sometime in the next 24 hours) and sent to Linus during
the next merge window (or sooner if it is a bug fix), however if
problems are discovered then the patch may be dropped or reverted.

You may get further e-mails resulting from automated or manual testing
and review of the tree, please engage with people reporting problems and
send followup patches addressing any issues that are reported if needed.

If any updates are required or you are submitting further changes they
should be sent as incremental updates against current git, existing
patches will not be replaced.

Please add any relevant lists and maintainers to the CCs when replying
to this mail.

Thanks,
Mark
