Let's stick with > what spdx has as that is what everyone has agreed on. I did not touch a single byte of the original gnu.org licences. Just deleted the text of the licence from the Linux file, wget it from gnu.org, cat to the file, and did the patch. Plain and simple. If there are any inconsistencies, they were already present in the Linux files, and/or spdx.org. I do not like to change any part of legal texts from the original source. Even control character cleanups (^L, ^M, TAB, ...). Thanks for your time, but I am not going to do it.
