Hello,

When you make a series, you should also make a cover letter that gives an
overview of what is done in the series.  You can find information about
how to do this in the tutorial.

Also, previously Greg has asked that patches that add SPDX identifiers be
accompanised by subsequent patches that remove existing boilerplate
license text, if there is any.  So you may want to check on this.
