I don't need a personal CC, linux-scsi is sufficient. However, as a general rule, changes to any file in drivers/scsi needs go through the SCSI tree. We sometimes make exceptions to facilitate the merge process. In those cases an Acked-by: will be provided to indicate that it is OK that the patch goes through a different tree. -- Martin K.
