These are automated emails from the kbuild bot.  I just look over the
Smatch warnings and forward them.  It don't know how the CC list is
chosen.  I guess just from who signed off on the patch...  My guess is
that people would be annoyed if we CC'd more people.

Generally, we have a really good success rate with people fixing these
warnings.  I recently had a case where the zero day bot email wasn't
clear, but I caught that because I'm looking at new Smatch warnings on
my own system.  There was another case, where the bug was fixed and then
re-introduced via a bad merge and we almost missed that because it was
marked as old.  Fortunately, I discoverd it while looking at a different
bug.

regards,
dan carpenter
