EDAC/altera: Remove MODULE_LICENSE in non-module
Since 8b41fc4 ("kbuild: create modules.builtin without Makefile.modbuiltin or tristate.conf"), MODULE_LICENSE declarations are used to identify modules. As a consequence, uses of the macro in non-modules will cause modprobe to misidentify their containing object file as a module when it is not (false positives), and modprobe might succeed rather than failing with a suitable error message. altera_edac is not a module for a while now, remove the macro call.
