I think linux-wireless is sufficient, especially for small and/or
isolated patches.  But there is no real harm in including netdev,
especially for patches with broader impact.  For example, if Zhu Yi
and PJ had chosen to push the multiqueue stuff on wireless first then
it would certainly have been appropriate to copy netdev.  I guess
it is just a judgment call -- if your patch merits broader review,
then copy netdev as well.

Hth!  (I doubt if it does!)
