I suspect Randy went by the MAINTAINERS entry - you might want to add netdev
as a second 'L:' line:
ETHERNET BRIDGE
M: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger at linux-foundation.org>
L: bridge at 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.
Thanks,
Ingo
