Hi,

I've been working on a cleanup patch and have got it into a submittable
state. To figure out whom to submit it too, I have run
get_maintainers.pl script. My problem is that I get a list of 9 people
excluding myself which appears and the public mailing lists.

My question is, is it actually necessary to send my patch to ALL of
these people? Or should I go directly to Greg KH in this case being that
he is the subsystem maintainer?

Thanks
