Merge tag 'spdx-5.2-rc2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/driver-core

Pull SPDX update from Greg KH:
"Here is a series of patches that add SPDX tags to different kernel
files, based on two different things:

- SPDX entries are added to a bunch of files that we missed a year
ago that do not have any license information at all.

These were either missed because the tool saw the MODULE_LICENSE()
tag, or some EXPORT_SYMBOL tags, and got confused and thought the
file had a real license, or the files have been added since the
last big sweep, or they were Makefile/Kconfig files, which we
didn't touch last time.

- Add GPL-2.0-only or GPL-2.0-or-later tags to files where our scan
tools can determine the license text in the file itself. Where this
happens, the license text is removed, in order to cut down on the
700+ different ways we have in the kernel today, in a quest to get
rid of all of these.

These patches have been out for review on the linux-spdx@vger mailing
list, and while they were created by automatic tools, they were
hand-verified by a bunch of different people, all whom names are on
the patches are reviewers.

The reason for these "large" patches is if we were to continue to
progress at the current rate of change in the kernel, adding license
tags to individual files in different subsystems, we would be finished
in about 10 years at the earliest.

There will be more series of these types of patches coming over the
next few weeks as the tools and reviewers crunch through the more
"odd" variants of how to say "GPLv2" that developers have come up with
over the years, combined with other fun oddities (GPL + a BSD
disclaimer?) that are being unearthed, with the goal for the whole
kernel to be cleaned up.

These diffstats are not small, 3840 files are touched, over 10k lines
removed in just 24 patches"

4.2-rc are addressed already (by converting more towards atomic

All the other conflicts are just adjacent lines changed.

====================
Cleanup the kernel sockets.

Right now the situtation for allocating kernel sockets is a mess.
- sock_create_kern does not take a namespace parameter.
- kernel sockets must not reference count a network namespace and keep
it alive or else we will have a reference counting loop.
- The way we avoid the reference counting loop with sk_change_net
and sk_release_kernel are major hacks.

This patchset addresses this mess by fixing sock_create_kern to do
everything necessary to create a kernel socket. None of the current
users of kernel sockets need the network namespace reference counted.
Either kernel sockets are network namespace aware (and using the current
hacks) or kernel sockets are limited to the initial network namespace
in which case it does not matter.

This patchset starts by addressing tun which should be using normal
userspace sockets like macvtap.

Then sock_create_kern is fixed to take a network namespace.
Then the in kernel status of sockets are passed through to sk_alloc.
Then sk_alloc is fixed to not reference count the network namespace
of kernel sockets.
Then the callers of sock_create_kern are fixed up to stop using hacks.
Then netlink which uses it's own flavor of sock_create_kern is fixed.

Finally the hacks that are sk_change_net and sk_release_kernel are removed.

When it is all done the code is easier to follow, easier to use, easier
to maintain and shorter by about 70 lines.
