This is a pointless change.
scripts/checkpatch.pl from kernel sources already is warning about it:
"Do not include the paragraph about writing to the Free Software Foundation's
mailing address from the sample GPL notice. The FSF has changed addresses in
the past, and may do so again. Linux already includes a copy of the GPL."
Much better is replace all occurrences from:
"if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc.,
59 Temple Place - Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307, USA."
to:
"if not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>."
