It's actually license-rules.rst that just hasn't been updated. The
"GPL-.2.0" and "GPL-2.0+" naming was considered too terse, so the
modern spdx tag suggestions are "GPL-2.0-only" and "GPL-2.0-or-later".
The full list of all spdx license tags (many of which aren't relevant
for the kernel, of course) can be found at
https://spdx.org/licenses/
in case you care.
