My "send all the patches" automation saw a file touching net and put
the "net-next" in all the subjects. I'm struggling to figure out how to
redefine this logic to not fire with a series like this (it's very rare
that if I'm touching a file in net/ that it isn't going via netdev). The
best I can think of is to check if the cover letter is also being sent
"To:" a netdev maintainer?
