Comment header specifies GPL-2, so add a MODULE_LICENSE("GPL v2").
This fixes the driver failing to load when built as module:
  imageon_bridge: module license 'unspecified' taints kernel.
  imageon_bridge: Unknown symbol ...
As an extra service, also add a description.

Lovely, but unfortunately the imageon driver is not part of the official linux kernel.

So we can't do anything with this patch.
