Merge tag 'spdx-7.1-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/spdx

Pull SPDX update from Greg KH: "Here is a single SPDX-like change for 7.1-rc1. It explicitly allows the use of SPDX-FileCopyrightText which has been used already in many files. At the same time, update checkpatch to catch any "non allowed" spdx identifiers as we don't want to go overboard here. This has been in linux-next for a long time with no reported problems" * tag 'spdx-7.1-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/spdx: LICENSES: Explicitly allow SPDX-FileCopyrightText
