This patch doesn't touch any code and should (hopefully) not be
controversial. There doesn't seem to be a maintainer for this file,
but changes are trivial.

Nack. Licence is British English, license American English. It's
not wrong.
Licence is the noun in British English, while license in the noun in
American English. License is the correct verb in both.
Ah, you seem right.
Nevertheless, I don't think this is worth debating. If there's
dissent I'm happy to drop the first part of the patch.
I would still suggest to separate the two issues, as Stefan W. has
done before - one patch for all "acess" -> "access", and one for all
"licenced" -> "licensed", rather than file-based changes. That reduces
list traffic for such cosmetic issues.
It might be worth thinking about integrating the top 10 typos into
checkpatch.pl.
