I suspect Randy went by the MAINTAINERS entry - you might want to add netdev as a second 'L:' line: ETHERNET BRIDGE M: Stephen Hemminger L: bridge@lists.linux-foundation.org W: http://www.linux-foundation.org/en/Net:Bridge S: Maintained F: include/linux/netfilter_bridge/ F: net/bridge/ To make it really clear that netdev must be Cc:-ed for those patches.
