With netdev, we tend to assume they do, or at least can contribute to
the discussion. They often know about any dependencies etc which could
influence the decision. When there are multiple subsystem maintainers
involved, i tend to use To: to indicate the maintainer i think should
merge the patch, and Cc: for the rest.

It does not, as far as i'm aware. Christian, do you know of any
reason?
