Have you considered using the new SPDX ids instead of this fine legalese? e.g.:

// SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0

This is much shorter and neater (unless you are a legalese lover of
course!) Check also Thomas doc patches and Linus comments on why he
prefers the C++ comment style for these.

And even better could be this more compact form? I am a big fan of the
C++ style comments for these (and so is Linus)

// SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0
// Copyright (c) 2017 Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd.
// Register definition file for Samsung MFC V10.x Interface (FIMV) driver

You can also read this fine article from a fellow Samsung colleague
[1]. And if you ever consider doing this for all Samsung's past,
present and future contributions, you will have my deep gratitude
