[Andi Shyti]

Replace the original license statement with the SPDX identifier.

Hi,

this second version unlike v1, where I tried to move the license
from GPLv2+ to GPLv2, preserves the original licese while adding
the SPDX identifier.

You still need to put this line at the very top of the file, first
line. That's the convention for the SPDX tags as documented by Thomas
Gleixner.

I had some doubts on this one, indeed. How should it be done in
this case:

1. Strictly by Thomas documentation:

  /* SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 */

  /*
   * Copyright (C) 2009 Samsung Electronics Ltd.
   *     Jaswinder Singh <jassi.brar@samsung.com>
   */

or

2. with a little interpretation

  /*
   * SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0
   *
   * Copyright (C) 2009 Samsung Electronics Ltd.
   *     Jaswinder Singh <jassi.brar@samsung.com>
   */

(I opted for the one with the least number of changes)

Thanks,
Andi

You should go strictly by Thomas' doc. This is one area where
consistency is the thing that brings benefits. Interpretation is not
needed.
So please, consider going with 1.
