This enables the malformed SPDX check, the misplaced SPDX license tag check, the long line checks, the lines without a newline check and the embedded filename check.

It is literally no different, the only difference is "we can make the code smaller because these are less important". [1] So let's warn on VM_BUG_ON() and other BUG variants as well. While at it, make it clearer that the kernel really shouldn't be crashed. As there are some subsystem BUG macros that actually don't end up crashing the kernel -- for example, KVM_BUG_ON() -- exclude these manually.
