stable@vger.kernel.org to get the patch since it is eligible for -stable
only after it is merged upstream. So the CC form of the tag seems to be
kind of inconvenient. Won't it be better to have some different tag?

the stable "robots" know that they should only take a patch once it hits
upstream. Don't worry, just cc stable and let them handle the rest.

cheers
