Linus Torvalds 3e4fb4346c SPDX patches for 5.10-rc1
Here are some SPDX-specific changes for 5.10-rc1.
 
 They include:
 	- driver fixes to make spdxcheck.pl work properly
 	- add GFDL licenses as "deprecated" but required due to some of
 	  our documentation using them
 	- add Zlib license as "deprecated" but required because we have
 	  code with this license in the tree.
 	- convert some drivers to have SPDX identifiers that previously
 	  didn't have them.
 
 All have been in linux-next for a very long time with no reported
 issues.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
