Thank you for your kindly comment.

It seems there are few ethernet drivers applying SPDX-License-Identifier
to C source, then it has been difficult for me to decide whether to replace
boilerplate.

If it's no problem to apply SPDX to sources of ethernet drivers,
I'll replace it with the single line.

It's much simpler.
If it's reasonable to apply this style here, I can replace it, too.

Thank you,
