At least the active maintainers (bcm2835 + staging) and the relevant mailing lists. Usually i try to avoid sending ARM stuff to linux-kernel. All the other output from get_maintainers (commiter and authors) could be helpful in the lack of a maintainer or in case of a fix for a specific commit. At the end it's only a tool like checkpatch.

Yes, all subscriber to linux-rpi-kernel should be affected by this anti-spam stuff. I wrote an email to the owner in the hope to increase the limitation and avoid the manual unlock by the moderator. Last weekend i received a bunch of emails and some of them were from December 2016. This is unacceptable. I hope we will find a solution.
