Sure thing. I reckon this can be a tad surprising.
FWIW, the reference for the SPDX tag is in
Documentation/process/license-rules.rst and for the MODULE_LICENSE
macro this is in module.h
It is unlikely module.h will ever evolve there as this would break all
third-party module loaders/tools that rely on the documented data
values and conventions
