Yes, that's the intend. Feel free to add either:

	Reviewed-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@...nel.org>

Or
	Acked-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@...nel.org>

to Documentation/*/index.rst files I wrote that might have missing:

	.. SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0

on the top of it.

Thanks,
Mauro
