When U-Boot started using SPDX tags we were among the early adopters and
there weren't a lot of other examples to borrow from. So we picked the
area of the file that usually had a full license text and replaced it
with an appropriate SPDX-License-Identifier: entry. Since then, the
Linux Kernel has adopted SPDX tags and they place it as the very first
line in a file (except where shebangs are used, then it's second line)
and with slightly different comment styles than us.
In part due to community overlap, in part due to better tag visibility
and in part for other minor reasons, switch over to that style.
This commit changes all instances where we have a single declared
license in the tag as both the before and after are identical in tag
contents. There's also a few places where I found we did not have a tag
and have introduced one.

When run with the --dry-run argument patman prints out information
showing what it would do. This information currently doesn't line up
with what patman/git send-email really do. Some basic examples:
- If an email address is addressed via "Series-cc" and "Patch-cc" patman
shows that email address would be CC-ed two times.
- If an email address is addressed via "Series-to" and "Patch-cc" patman
shows that email address would be sent TO and CC-ed.
- If an email address is addressed from a combination of tag aliases,
get_maintainer.pl output, "Series-cc", "Patch-cc", etc patman shows
that the email address would be CC-ed multiple times.
Patman currently does try to send duplicate emails like the --dry-run
output shows, but "git send-email" intelligently removes duplicate
addresses so this patch shouldn't change the non-dry-run functionality.
Change patman's output and email addressing to line up with the
"git send-email" logic. This trims down patman's dry-run output and

If an integer is given to the argument, Python exits with the return

That means,
print >> sys.stderr, "Blah Blah"
sys.exit(1)

It seems that 'undefined' is created by git and is persistent after it is

Conflicting tags can prevent buildman from building two series which exist
one after the other in a branch. There is no reason not to allow this sort
of workflow with buildman, so ignore conflicting tags in buildman.

The git config parameter log.decorate is quite useful when working with git.
Patman, however can not handle the decorated output when parsing the commit.
To prevent this use the '--no-decorate' switch for git-log.

For some series with lots of changes it is annoying that duplicate change
log items are not caught. It is also helpful sometimes to sort the change
logs.
Add a Series-process-log tag to enable this, which can be placed in a
commit to control this.
The change to the Cc: line is to fix a checkpatch warning.

Especially with the Linux kernel, it takes a long time (a minute or more)
to test-apply the patches, so patman becomes significantly less useful.
The only real problem that is found with this apply step is trailing spaces.
Provide a -a option to skip this step, for those working with clean patches.

Patman's regular expression for detecting the start of a
commit in a git log was a little simplistic and could be
confused if the git log itself had the word "commit" as
the start of a line (as this commit does). Make patman
a little more robust.

Often it happens that patches include tags which don't have aliases. It
is annoying that patman fails in this case, and provides no option to
continue other than adding empty tags to the .patman file.
Correct this by adding a '-t' option to ignore tags that don't exist.
Print a warning instead.
Since running the tests is not a common operation, move this to --test
instead, to reserve -t for this new option.

A few of the help messages are not quite right, and there is a typo

This comment is less than helpful. Since multiple tags are supported, add
an example of how multiple tags work.

At present something like:
Revert "arm: Add cache operations"
will try to use
Revert "arm
as a tag. Clearly this is wrong, so fix it.
If the revert is intended to be tagged, then the tag can come before
the revert, perhaps. Alternatively the 'Cc' tag can be used in the commit
messages.
