Don't worry about it too much, there needs to be a level of
understanding for cross-tree folks. This unfortunately may 
not be afforded to less known developers.. because we don't 
know them/that they are working cross-tree.

Reality check for me - this is really something that should
be handled by our process scripts, right? get_maintainer/
/checkpatch ? Or that's not a fair expectation.
