Thanks for info. My bad, I forget to update the subject.
I can send v3 with corrected subject, but who is going to take this?

$ ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl kernel/utsname_sysctl.c
linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org (open list)

There is listed Author: Eric Biederman, so is it him to Cc ?

Kind regards,
Petr
