Ah, this is the backport of the patches from the kernel into the
trace-cmd library to get them back in sync. Notice that LKML isn't
Cc'd. I told Tzvetomir to keep the change log from the kernel to
preserve the history of the commit in trace-cmd, I forgot that it will
cause git to Cc those in the change log. :-/

I believe there's a way for git sendmail not to send email to the Cc's
in the commit message, right? I'll work with Tzvetomir to make sure
that we avoid sending these to kernel folks when doing the trace-cmd
backports.

Sorry for the noise ;-)
