netdev patchwork issues [Was: Re: [PATCH net-next v2 0/4] of_get_mac_address ERR_PTR fixes]

[adding Jeremy to the Cc: loop]

it was applied[2] to David's net-next tree, but unfortunately partialy, just 9
patches out of 10, as the patch 05/10 in that series (which is patch 1/4 in
this series) never reached netdev mailing list and patchwork, probably because
of some netdev mailing list software and/or patchwork hiccup, very likely due
to the long list of recipients in that patch and as I'm not subscribed to the
netdev (due to the high traffic) I'm probably treaten somehow differently.

For the record, I've following in my ~/.gitconfig:

 [sendemail.linux]
    tocmd ="`pwd`/scripts/get_maintainer.pl --nogit --nogit-fallback --norolestats --nol"
    cccmd ="`pwd`/scripts/get_maintainer.pl --nogit --nogit-fallback --norolestats --nom"

and I've sent the patches with the following command:

 git send-email \
	--to netdev@vger.kernel.org \
	--to 'David S. Miller [off-list ref]' \
	--cc 'Andrew Lunn [off-list ref]' \
	--cc 'Florian Fainelli [off-list ref]' \
	--cc 'Heiner Kallweit [off-list ref]' \
	--cc 'Frank Rowand [off-list ref]' \
	--cc 'devel@driverdev.osuosl.org' \
	--cc 'linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org' \
	--cc 'Greg Kroah-Hartman [off-list ref]' \
	--cc 'Maxime Ripard [off-list ref]' \
	--identity linux tmp/nvmem-fix-v2/000*

which resulted just in the following 4 bounces:

 * nbd@openwrt.org (no such recipient)
 * ks.giri@samsung.com (no such recipient)
 * vipul.pandya@samsung.com (no such recipient)

 Your mail to 'linux-arm-kernel' with the subject

    [PATCH net-next v2 1/4] net: ethernet: support of_get_mac_address new ERR_PTR error

 Is being held until the list moderator can review it for approval.  The reason
 it is being held:

    Too many recipients to the message

So maybe netdev have similar moderation stuff enabled, but doesn't send out
this notices back? I've "fixed" the issue with the following workaround:

 git send-email \
 	--to netdev@vger.kernel.org \
	--in-reply-to '[ref]' \
	tmp/nvmem-fix-v2/0001-net-ethernet-support-of_get_mac_address-new-ERR_PTR-.patch

That is, just using netdev as the sole recipient and then the patch has
appeared in the patchwork and in the mailing list archive as well.
