FWIW: Is shipping the new COPYING file (https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/COPYING ) really enough to comply with the Fedora packaging/licensing guidelines? I tend to think we at least need to ship the first two files that are mentioned in it (and maybe a file that explains the "and Redistributable, no modification permitted" part in the license field of the specfile). Then maybe /usr/share/licenses/kernel/$kver/ directory might make sense; maybe other files from the LICENSES directory (https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/LICENSES ) should be included there as well. Or they should go to the docs subpackage (btw: isn't it time to have one again regularly now that Documentation/ and the tools to process it got revamped?)
