Upstream Linux never had a "README.legal" file, but it was present in early source releases of Linux/m68k. It contained a simple copyright notice and a link to a version of the "COPYING" file that predated the addition of the "only valid GPL version is v2" clause. Get rid of the references to non-existant files by replacing the boilerplate with SPDX license identifiers.
