I would add linux-arch.

Note, you may need to support both ways for the current time being, as
new __kprobes are being added (I've seen several in patches flying by
in LKML).

But perhaps at a later -rc we convert the rest and discontinue them.
That way, linux-next will break all new __kprobes, and that should get
them fixed before we enter 3.14-rc.
