  • This patch corrects the SPDX License Identifier style in
    header files related to USB Storage driver configuration.
    For C header files Documentation/process/license-rules.rst
    mandates C-like comments (opposed to C source files where
    C++ style should be used).

    Changes made by using a script provided by Joe Perches here:

  • Now that the SPDX tag is in all USB files, that identifies the license
    in a specific and legally-defined manner. So the extra GPL text wording
    can be removed as it is no longer needed at all.

    This is done on a quest to remove the 700+ different ways that files in
    the kernel describe the GPL license text. And there's unneeded stuff
    like the address (sometimes incorrect) for the FSF which is never
    needed.

    No copyright headers or other non-license-description text was removed.

  • It's good to have SPDX identifiers in all files to make it easier to
    audit the kernel tree for correct licenses.

    Update the drivers/usb/ and include/linux/usb* files with the correct
    SPDX license identifier based on the license text in the file itself.
    The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used
    instead of the full boiler plate text.

    This work is based on a script and data from Thomas Gleixner, Philippe
    Ombredanne, and Kate Stewart.

  • This patch (as1207) converts usb-storage's sddr09 subdriver into a
    separate module.

    An unexpected complication arises because of DPCM devices, in which
    one LUN uses the sddr09 transport and one uses the standard CB
    transport. Since these devices can be used even when
    USB_STORAGE_SDDR09 isn't configured, their entries in unusual_devs.h
    require special treatment. If SDDR09 isn't configured then the
    entries remain in unusual_devs.h; if it is then the entries are
    present in unusual_sddr09.h instead.
