This is also the preferred way to do it for XFS. Maybe word it in a way
that we can easily add subsystems.
To me it generally seems to be the best way to do it - having random Ccs
and lots of stable trees doesn't seem like a very good way of handling
it.

Maybe adding a mechanism to MAINTAINERS would be better.
Maybe a default B: (backport?) of stable@vger.kernel.org
with a per-subsystem override?
SUBSYSTEM TYPE
M: maintainer@email.address
L: list@email.address
S: Supported
F: file/pattern/
B: stable@email.address
