So, sometimes some patches going upstream are not "stable" candidates
but yet can help considerably. If you are writing such a patch I would
like to ask for you to append to your commit log entry this:

Cc: compat@orbit-lab.org

I will then scrape linux-next.git for these patches and stuff them
into linux-next-cherry-pick/ for integration into a non-vanilla
release of a stable compat-wireless. John, please let me know if this
one line commit log pollution acceptable to you.

  Luis

Sorry, distracted...

As far as I'm concerned, you can Cc anyone you want in the changelog.
