I'd rather we use the latest version of the spdx forms.
https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/2/2/883
I think it's better to modify checkpatch when the kernel
uses the latest forms.

There is a separate script that validates the spdx forms.
./scripts/spdxcheck.py

That script, which still needs the patch below, would work
with either style.

https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/10448573/

$ python ./scripts/spdxcheck.py 
include/dt-bindings/reset/amlogic,meson-axg-reset.h: 9:41 Invalid License ID: BSD

or for more verbose output

$ python ./scripts/spdxcheck.py -v
include/dt-bindings/reset/amlogic,meson-axg-reset.h: 9:41 Invalid License ID: BSD
