scripts/spdxcheck: Put excluded files and directories into a separate file The files and directories which are excluded from scanning are currently hard coded in the script. That's not maintainable and not accessible for external tools. Move the files and directories which should be excluded into a file. The default file is scripts/spdxexclude. This can be overridden with the '-e $FILE' command line option. The file format and syntax is similar to the .gitignore file.

scripts/spdxcheck: Exclude config directories Kernel configuration files like default configs are machine generated and pretty useless outside of the kernel context. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

scripts/spdxcheck: Exclude MAINTAINERS/CREDITS Listings of maintainers and people who deserve credits are not really interesting in terms of copyright. The usage of these files outside of the kernel is pointless and the file format is trivial. No point in chasing them or slapping a SPDX identifier into them just because.
