cpupower: remove LIC_FILES_CHKSUM
cpupower is a 'special' recipe since it does "inherit kernelsrc" ,
which essentially means that it doesn't have its own sources, but
reuse the kernel source tree, from virtual/kernel recipe. As such,
checking the license file in cpupower recipe does not seem relevant,
since it does not fetch anything (kernelsrc has "deltask do_fetch")
and the fetching is deferred to the virtual/kernel recipe.
so we are basically checking the COPYING file twice. If there was any
license issue, it would have been caught by virtual/kernel recipe
already.
Hence we remove LIC_FILES_CHKSUM like it is done for perf recipe in
OE-core in meta/recipes-kernel/perf/perf.bb.
It has the nice side effect that BSP layers can use different kernel
versions without worrying about any LICENSE checksum changes in
between kernel versions.
