Hi.
You've given all these patches the same email subject line.
That would mean the commit subject line would also be the same
for each of these 6 patches.
That's bad.
More proper would be to use the first line of each commit
message as part of the subject line
i.e.: This subject line would become:
Subject: [PATCH 1/6] KVM: Fix "SPDX comment style" warnings
or perhaps better:
Subject: [PATCH 1/6] KVM: Use typical SPDX comment style
etc...

And this bit doesn't belong in the first patch of 6, but in a 0/6
patch cover letter.
cheers, Joe
