[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] pmdinfogen: add SPDX license tag

[Hemant Agrawal]

This patch adds SPDX license tag to pmdinfogen files.

These files are originally drived from kernel.
They are being used as binary tool to support internal
build.

This patch requires license exception approval from
DPDK Technical Board and Governing Board.
