Drop, adding SPDX tag was barely a copyrightable work needing
acknowledgement.

You can drop this one, not a valid email anymore.

Please drop the autogenerated scripts/get_maintainer.pl CC-entries from
commit msg. There is no single need to store automated output of
get_maintainers.pl in the git log. It can be easily re-created at any
given time, thus its presence in the git history is redundant and
obfuscates the log.

If you need it for your own patch management purposes, keep it under the
--- separator.
