      COPYING: create a new file with points to the Kernel license files · 88de995c
      Mauro Carvalho Chehab 提交于
      With the addition of SPDX patchset, the contents of COPYING file
      is now duplicated at two other files under LICENSE:
      	LICENSES/preferred/GPL-2.0
      	LICENSES/exceptions/Linux-syscall-note
      
      It is easy to check that the contents of the licence written on
      those files are identical with COPYING using:
      
      	$ diff -upr COPYING LICENSES/preferred/GPL-2.0
      	$ diff -upr COPYING LICENSES/exceptions/Linux-syscall-note|less
      
      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.
      
      Please notice that this file preserves the Kernel license as
      is, without any changes.

      docs: clarify security-bugs disclosure policy · 7f5d465f
      Dave Hansen 提交于
      I think we need to soften the language a bit.  It might scare folks
      off, especially the:
      
      	 We prefer to fully disclose the bug as soon as possible.
      
      which is not really the case.  Linus says:
      
      	It's not full disclosure, it's not coordinated disclosure,
      	and it's not "no disclosure".  It's more like just "timely
      	open fixes".
      
      I changed a bit of the wording in here, but mostly to remove the word
      "disclosure" since it seems to mean very specific things to people
      that we do not mean here.
