The rule is currently CC the first bad commit's author and committer.
In this case,

        commit 4184a1e415257e3d2e75a5adf184de9ffaf82a7c
        Author:     Hannes Reinecke <hare@...e.de>

            scsi: use 64-bit LUNs

=>

        TO: Hannes Reinecke <hare@...e.de>
        CC: Christoph Hellwig <hch@....de>

Do you mean adding rule

        if error_file =~ /drivers\/staging/
                TO/CC error_file's author/committer instead
        end

In this case,

        TO: Micky Ching <micky_ching@...lsil.com.cn>
        CC: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org>

I agree that it'd be good for Micky to work out a fix for his staging
driver. However due to the obvious dependency here, it looks best for
you to include the fix together with "scsi: use 64-bit LUNs"?

So in general it'd be good to keep all relevant people in the CC list.
That is,

        TO/CC first bad commit's author/committer
        for each error_file =~ /drivers\/staging/
                CC error_file's author/committer
        end

Thanks,
Fengguang
