This change explicitly specifies the licensing terms for the CXL region
module as GPL v2. This commit does not introduce any functional changes
to the behavior or functionality of the CXL region module.
It solely adds the MODULE_LICENSE declaration to the module source file.

Why is this needed? The region code is added to cxl_core when built and
that module already reports the correct module license.

Right, and region.c has:
