The linux-edac list was recently added to the QEMU MAINTAINERS
file:

  https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/commit/4c5e70b9a42744401fc10b17cc61820586ba4a13

and the entry matches the qapi/acpi-hest.json file that John has
modified, so gets auto-CC'd.

Admittedly the content in this series is not especially relevant
to the liunux-edac list in this case, but the patch submission
tools are just following the declared MAINTAINERS file entry.

With regards,
Daniel
