Please check your CC list when sending things upstream - try to ensure
that people you're sending patches to are relevant to the patch.
Maintainers often get lots of mail and having to sort out mail that's
not really relevant to them can make it easier for relevant mail to get
missed.

...though it could have more.

I don't understand this change, a read will go to cache anyway.
