The only thing that uses the work address is patches and signoffs, all
my e-mail traffic is done from my kernel.org address (including patch
posts).

Unfortunately my employer can't cope with that at present and I don't
really want to use my work address for everything since all the stuff
from upstream DoSs the stuff that pays the bills. I wouldn't mind if
people mailed both, but if you're going to pick a single one then the
one listed in MAINTAINERS is the way forwards (which generally is the
address people manage to pick).

/me notes that he'd probably have been less grumpy if the message had
a subject line that had content in it, even had it gone to the right
mailbox there's a good chance I'd never even have opened the mail due to
that - if anything it going to the wrong place actually worked around
the subject line here.
