Actually, minor comment, can we remove the blank line between the SPDX
identifier and the copyright? Given that in the majority of cases, we
will only have one line each, having a space between them is a) probably
unnecessary, and b) looks weird IMHO.

I'm currently working on a patchset to update the meson.build files, and
I think having:

# SPDX-License-Identifier: BSD-3-Clause
# Copyright(c) 2017 Intel Corporation

looks better as a header than two one-line paragraphs.
+1, I agree with Bruce
I will fix it.
However,  I will suggest to not enforced it as a policy. Let the 
copyright owners decide, how they want to place the copyright.
