The address does not work. Please don't add it to commit log.

This is also not really needed in commit log... it's just a mailing list...

I actually never understood why people want to add to commit log, so to
something which will last 10 years, Cc-ing other folks, instead of
adding such tags after '---'. Imagine 10 years from now:

1. What's the point to be cced on this patch after 10 years instead of
using maintainers file (the one in 10 years)? Why Cc-ing me in 10 years?
If I am a maintainer of this driver in that time, I will be C-ced based
on maintainers file. If I am not a maintainer in 10 years, why the heck
cc-ing me based on some 10-year old commit? Just because I was a
maintainer once, like 10 years ago?

2. Or why cc-ing such people when backporting to stable?

It's quite a lot of unnecessary emails which many of us won't actually
handle later...

I sincerely admit I was once also adding such Cc-tags. But that time my
employer was counting lines-of-patch (including commit log)... crazy, right?

Did you test W=1 with !CONFIG_PM_SLEEP? No warnings?
