Hi Cédric,
Thanks for pointing me to the earlier thread, moving to
the `SPDX-License-Identifier` tags is the better long-term fix.

To keep traffic on qemu-devel@ manageable, I'd like to work
subtree by subtree, following the sections in MAINTAINERS.

Just a handful in the ASPEED code base using MIT:
hw/ssi/aspeed_smc.c
include/hw/ssi/aspeed_smc.h
tests/qtest/aspeed_gpio-test.c
tests/qtest/aspeed_smc-test.c
tests/qtest/aspeed-smc-utils.c
tests/qtest/aspeed-smc-utils.h
Oh and I am the one that did that 9y ago. I think I was inspired by
the PPC series source files I was working on at the time.
## Proposed steps
1. Start with the ASPEED BMC subtree.
2. Split commits by path and header style.
path: hw/, include/hw/, tests/
license: GPL-2.0-or-later, GPL-2.0-only, MIT
style: boiler plate, see COPYING

SPDX-License-Identifier, without changing code.
Does this approach sound reasonable for you?
LGTM. I will merge these changes through the aspeed tree.
Thanks,
C.
