If you like reading documentation for stuff like this, how about reading
LICENSES/preferred/GPL-2.0 which shows that both examples are just fine
and we are going to stick with that for now as we don't want to do a
wholesale change at this point in time.
In other words, we do not follow the 3.0 version of the SPDX spec as we
think it's pretty silly :)

coreboot however does follow SPDX 3.0 and would like to be able to
consume this file without relaxing their license checks. I do not
think we need wholesale update, but is there reason to not update this
particular file? I am not following SPDX development, so that's why
you got pulled in ;)
Thanks.

If you want to take this change because of sharing with other projects,
that's fine, but do not say that the reason you are making this change
is because it is somehow required by our use of SPDX and the updated
version. Just say that you want to share it with other projects :)
