cpufreq (at least) does it this way. I don't know how well it is turning out in practice.
It's useful if the initial report makes it clear (ie; to me) that the report has already gone to a mailing list so I don't go and forward a duplicate.
But there are so few arm reports in bugzilla that this is all rather moot.

He's a bad, bad man ;)
But he's been turning these things around pretty rapidly lately. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
