No. We do want to keep the Acked-by's on the cc.

But you missed the real problem.

It *didn't* cc the acked-by. Look closer. What happened was that it cc'd this:

 "Acked-by: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@intel.com>, David S. Miller"

 <davem@davemloft.net>

ie there is only _one_ email address (that of davem@davemloft.net),
and the whole "Acked-by: Alexander Duyck <...>" part is quoted as the
_name_ of that email address.

At least that's what the headers look like for me in the original report:

   From: kernel test robot <xiaolong.ye@intel.com>
   To: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>
   Cc: lkp@01.org, Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>,
LKML <linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org>, Alexei Starovoitov
<ast@kernel.org>, Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com>, "Acked-by:
Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@intel.com>, David S. Miller"
<davem@davemloft.net>

Notice the quoting of that last "name".
