#1315005 — [PATCH v2 3/3] xen-scsiback: fix license ident used in MODULE_LICENSE

The comment at the beginning of the file is the canonical source of
licenses for this module. The license used to distribute outside of
Linux kernel is not BSD license but X11 license. Instead of trying to
determine whether X11 license can be mapped into Linux's "MIT" license
ident, simply make the code to use "GPL" only.
