If you're ok with the amount of mails you'll get then go ahead.
But I think maintainer file changes should always be in a separate
patch.

I think we wanted to use:

or

later or only ?
If it's a new file, it's up to the author. I personally prefer -later,
but I think IBM's preference is normally -only instead. Please check
with your colleagues.
Most s390x-related files in the kvm-unit-tests currently use
"GPL-2.0-only", so that should be ok anyway.
/* or // ?
I don't mind. // seems to be kernel style for .c files, but so far we've
only used /* with SPDX in the kvm-unit-tests, so both should be fine, I
think.
Just to : Why are you people not using the Linux style code completely
instead of making new exceptions.
i.e. SPDX license and MAINTAINERS
Actually, I wonder why the Linux documentation still recommends the
identifiers that are marked as deprecated on the SPDX website. The
deprecated "GPL-2.0" can be rather confusing, since it IMHO can easily
be mistaken as "GPL-2.0+", so the newer identifiers are better, indeed.
Not sure what you mean with MAINTAINERS, though.
Thanks for the explanations :)
For MAINTAINERS, the Linux kernel checkpatch warns that we should use
TABS instead of SPACES between item and names.
