Hello, Wolfgang.

I have a question about this.
Does this rule apply to files imported from other projects?

For example, when adding files that originate from the Linux Kernel
with modification for U-Boot, should we replace the legacy license
block with SPDX-License-Identifer?
Or can we keep the license block untouched?
