License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with no licenseMany user space API headers are missing licensing information, whichmakes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.By default are files without license information under the defaultlicense of the kernel, which is GPLV2. Marking them GPLV2 would excludethem from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously notintended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exceptionwhich is in the kernels COPYING file: NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDXlicense identifier. The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITHLinux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for theLinux syscall exception. SPDX license identifiers are a legally bindingshorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart andPhilippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for themethodology of how this patch was researched.Reviewed-by: Kate Stewart Reviewed-by: Philippe Ombredanne Reviewed-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman List of files: /linux-6.15/arch/powerpc/include/uapi/asm/ucontext.h
