If I am not wrong, your patch only replaces existing license text by
SPDX identifiers. So I find this commit message rather confusing. The
"at the same time" is actually the only thing that is being done - or am
I missing something important?

I wonder of we can just convert everything to GPL-2.0-or-later, the list
of people that contributed to most files is rather limited, so getting
most acks should be easy.
