Guenter Roeck f9363b31d7 checkpatch: scripts/spdxcheck.py now requires python3
Since commit d0259c42ab ("spdxcheck.py: Use Python 3"), spdxcheck.py
explicitly expects to run as python3 script.  If "python" still points to
python v2.7 and the script is executed with "python scripts/spdxcheck.py",
the following error may be seen even if git-python is installed for
python3.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "scripts/spdxcheck.py", line 10, in <module>
    import git
ImportError: No module named git

To fix the problem, check for the existence of python3, check if
the script is executable and not just for its existence, and execute
it directly.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
