Almost everything in ARM64 is then relevant for "phone development".
People should use tools, not invent or try to guess whom to Cc. It's
impossible to btw keep guessing them - you will request phone-devel,
someone else will request desktop-devel, laptop-devel or
new-hardware-devel or whatever. No. People should use tools, not guess
the cc lists. Fix the tools if you miss any Cc.
