Good point, thanks a lot!

I was not aware of the fact that there is a separate ML that should receive patches targeted ARM SOCs. Can you (or anyone else) please share it, so I can re-send it there as well?

"scripts/get_maintainer.pl --no-git-fallback --no-multiline --no-rolestats --no-n --separator , " across entire series gave only the list of addresses that I've included in the series itself. If I would be given a arm-soc mailing list as output of the script - I would've included it as well.
