The contents of COPYING file is now duplicated at two other

	LICENSES/preferred/GPL-2.0
	LICENSES/exceptions/Linux-syscall-note

Also, a new file was added, with describes how SPDX should work at
the Kernel source files:
	Documentation/process/license-rules.rst

Instead fo having it copying the contents of two files, and not
even mentioning the third one, replace it by a file whose content
points to the other tree files, preserving the Kernel's license.

Adjust license-rules.rst accordingly.
It looks like we're about there with these, so I went ahead and applied
them.

Thanks,
