Excellent solution, Maxime.
Minor suggestions and typos mentioned below.

Suggest:
+ echo "Example of valid file: linux/vfio.h"
+ echo "Example of valid version: v6.10"
> +Once imported, the header files should be committed without any other change,
> +and the commit message MUST specify the imported version using ``uAPI ID:``

"uAPI ID:" -> "uAPI Version"
"keywork" -> "keyword"
