Why is this useful?

This is useful because if you run checkpatch with
--ignore=C99_COMMENT_TOLERANCE
right now it will warn on almost every .c file in the linux kernel due
to the decision to
use // SPDX-License-Identifier: at the start of every c file
With this change checkpatch will stop complaining about this single
outlier // in the file
and allow you to enforce no other C99 // style comments in the patch.
It would have been a lot nicer if /* SPDX-License-Identifier: xxxx */
was used instead...

Maybe this is better:
Just don't perform any other per-line checks on a valid or invalid
SPDX line.

I tried your change and it works as well.
Probably better/simpler if no other processing is needed on lines with
SPDX-License-Indentifier: on it.
Would you like to just submit your patch or do I need to construct
something?

If checkpatch is run with --ignore=C99_COMMENT_TOLERANCE it
will warn on almost every .c file because linux kernel style
requires use of a C99 comment // SPDX-License-Identifier:
checkpatch does not need to do any additional per-line checking
after checking the SPDX-License-Identifier line.
This allows the C99 comment style for SPDK-License-Identifier
even if C99_COMMENT_TOLERANCE is specified by an --ignore option.
