I'm also not sure whether it's legally possible to replace the license text
without agreement of all authors of the file ... so better don't do a global
patch for that right now, start with one subsystem instead and see whether
it gets accepted... or maybe we should only add the SPDX tags, without
removing the license text? ... this all might require some more discussions
first ...
