I tried to build spidev-test using the bitbake recipe: 

spidev-test.bb
 
I set:
ARCH=arm
BBPATH
CROSS_COMPILER=arm-linux-gnueabihf-
PATH

... and then tried to build spidev-test:

$ bitbake -b spidev-test.bb

What's this about licences?

in current OE, there is no "GPL-2.0" license file, there is
"GPL-2.0-only" and "GPL-2.0-or-later" and a bunch of others, so i
think you need to pick one of those.
