ntb: remove unneeded DRIVER_LICENSE #defines
There is no need to #define the license of the driver, just put it in the MODULE_LICENSE() line directly as a text string. This allows tools that check that the module license matches the source code license to work properly, as there is no need to unwind the unneeded dereference, especially when the string is defined just a few lines above the usage of it.
