Agreed, if you are submitting pull requests then the MAINTAINERS
update for TPM related things should go into your pull request. That
is appropriate..

It isn't necessary for everything to be cc'd everywhere, ultimately it
is your responsibility as the TPM maintainer to accept/reject this
change.

If it was a larger change, like adding/removing a maintainer then a
large audiance would be appropriate, but this is just changing
spelling and the patch was PGP signed ..
