This was missing a hash file for the package, which provides the hash
of the tarball and the hash of the license file.

I was initially confused by this, because LICENSE.md also mentions than
the repo contains OpenSBI, which is under BSD-2-Clause. But in fact
this package only builds what's in tools/hss-payload-generator, so the
rest is irrelevant. Therefore, I have changed this to:

+# Some parts of the repository are under different licenses, but we
+# are only building/installing the code in
+# tools/hss-payload-generator/.
+HOST_MICROCHIP_HSS_PAYLOAD_GENERATOR_LICENSE = MIT or GPL-2.0+
+HOST_MICROCHIP_HSS_PAYLOAD_GENERATOR_LICENSE_FILES = tools/hss-payload-generator/LICENSE.md

Let me know if you think this is incorrect.

I've applied to our "next" branch with those changes. Thanks!

Thanks,

Thomas
