I've taken the dependancy here in the spdx tree and will send it to Linus for 5.3-rc2. I can also take this now through that tree, or you can add it to yours afterward, which ever is easier for you. thanks, greg k-h

UAPI headers licensed under GPL are supposed to have exception "WITH Linux-syscall-note" so that they can be included into non-GPL user space application code. Unfortunately, people often miss to add it. Break 'make headers' when any of exported headers lacks the exception note so that the 0-day bot can easily catch it.
