Re: [XEN PATCH for-4.17 v2 0/6] Fixing some licences issue in public headers

[Stefano Stabellini <sstabellini@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Anthony,

Thank you for doing this, it was much needed!


Hi all,

I think if we are going to commit this series for 4.17 then I would
suggest to also commit patches 1-3 of my "introduce SPDX" series:

https://marc.info/?l=xen-devel&m=166562222522996

They are already acked/reviewed and are zero risk as they don't actually
change any of the headers.


For clarify, I don't mean to cause any trouble to this series. I am also
happy to have this series committed in 4.17 without "introduce SPDX".

Cheers,

Stefano
