Would you consider doing the same for Documentation/core-api/idr.rst?
That's the only CC-SA SPDX tag in the kernel now, and it's a clear
example of just what I'm worried about: it pulls in a nice DOC section
from the code when you run Sphinx on it, so we're not just talking
function prototypes here. I was likely to come knocking on your door
after my upcoming conversation anyway...:)

Thanks,
