That there should be no sections that have LKML as a
list entry other than "everything".

A earlier commit, b5472cddbe2c41fd434592ecf3c5b81a551d5bea,
removed all the entries for LKML but "THE REST".
These removed entries have been added since that commit.

Having just a few sections show LKML as an entry
may lead people to think that LKML should not be
used as a CC entry unless it is specifically listed.

Documentation/SubmittingPatches already states that
LKML should be CC'd on all patches.

cheers, Joe
