Listings of maintainers and people who deserve credits are not really
interesting in terms of copyright. The usage of these files outside of the
kernel is pointless and the file format is trivial. No point in chasing
them or slapping a SPDX identifier into them just because.

Kernel configuration files like default configs are machine generated and
pretty useless outside of the kernel context.

The files and directories which are excluded from scanning are currently
hard coded in the script. That's not maintainable and not accessible for
external tools.
Move the files and directories which should be excluded into a file. The
default file is scripts/spdxexclude. This can be overridden with the
'-e $FILE' command line option.
The file format and syntax is similar to the .gitignore file.
