One of the more common cases of allocation size calculations is finding
the size of a structure that has a zero-sized array at the end, along
with memory for some number of elements for that array. For example:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo entry[];
};
size = sizeof(struct foo) + count * sizeof(struct boo);
instance = kzalloc(size, GFP_KERNEL)
Instead of leaving these open-coded and prone to type mistakes, we can
now use the new struct_size() helper:
size = struct_size(instance, entry, count);
or
instance = kzalloc(struct_size(instance, entry, count), GFP_KERNEL)
Based on the above, replace gdma_dma_alloc_desc() with kzalloc() and
use the new struct_size() helper.

The ralink-gdma.c driver did not have a SPDX identifier on it, so fix
that up. At the same time, remove the "free form" text that specified
the license of the file, as that is impossible for any tool to properly
parse.

There are a few remaining drivers/staging/*/Makefile files that do not
have SPDX identifiers in them. Add the correct GPL-2.0 identifier to
them to make scanning tools happy.

This is in preparation to allow it and the mt7621-dma drivers to be
built separately. They are completely independent pieces of software,
and the Kconfig specifies very different requirements.
