Sorry, I didn't know any better. Almost all recipients came from the
get-maintainers script (which I thought were mandatory to include). What's
the recommended way in such cases?

I already prepared and tested a patch for multi_v7_defconfig which I'll
send to the same recipients as before just for the sake of not shutting
out people that were previously addressed in this conversation.

Thanks and Happy New Year,

Timo
