      License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license · b2441318
      Greg Kroah-Hartman authored
      Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
      makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
      
      By default all files without license information are under the default
      license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
      
      Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
      SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
      shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
      
      This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
      Philippe Ombredanne.
      
      How this work was done:
      
      Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
      the use cases:
       - file had no licensing information it it.
       - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
       - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
      
      Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
      where non-standard...

      scripts: Switch to more portable Perl shebang · cb77f0d6
      Kamil Rytarowski authored
      
      The default NetBSD package manager is pkgsrc and it installs Perl
      along other third party programs under custom and configurable prefix.
      The default prefix for binary prebuilt packages is /usr/pkg, and the
      Perl executable lands in /usr/pkg/bin/perl.
      
      This change switches "/usr/bin/perl" to "/usr/bin/env perl" as it's
      the most portable solution that should work for almost everybody.
      Perl's executable is detected automatically.
      
      This change switches -w option passed to the executable with more
      modern "use warnings;" approach. There is no functional change to the
      default behavior.
      
      While there, drop "require 5" from scripts/namespace.pl (Perl from 1994?).

      headerdep: perlcritic warning · 1dcd8100
      Stephen Hemminger authored
      
      Minor perlcritic warning:
      headerdep.pl: "return" statement with explicit "undef" at line 84, column 2.  See page 199 of PBP.  (Severity: 5)
      
      The rationale according to PBP is that an explicit return of undef
      (contrary to most people's expectations) doesn't
      always evaluate as false. It has to with the fact that perl return value
      depends on context the function is called. If function is used in
      list context, the appropriate return value for false is an empty list;
      whereas in scalar context the return value for false is undefined.
      By just using a "return" both cases are handled.
      
      In the context of a trivial script this doesn't matter. But one script
      may be cut-paste into later code (most people like me only know 50%
      of perl), that is why perlcritic always complains
