Aesthetically speaking, I'm with you.

It's just that the powers that be have in their infinite wisdom decided
on the one true style (*) to add SPDX headers.

I'll look the other way, but I'm also not going to block patches adding
new files with "conforming" headers. I'm not sure how long we'll be able
to fend off patches converting existing headers, especially given that
SPDX headers were (and I think are being) added directly to Linus' tree
bypassing subsystem trees.

Fair enough?


BR,
Jani.


(*) Ahem, the two true styles, depending on whether it's a .c or a .h.
