Milan, I am wondering where you picked up this convention to add these
Cc: and CC: tags in your patch?

Is there some documentation that points out to do that? (That might
need to be fixed...)

Did you observe that on some other commits? I think these tags are
added by some maintainers (probably tool-supported) when they pick the
patches, not by the authors, though.

I'm using git send-email to send patches and, as described in the 'Sending patches with git send-email' section on https://kernelnewbies.org/FirstKernelPatch, git-send-email automatically Ccs people with the the Cc and CC tags. I did see this in other commits too, maybe they're used by the authors to pick out the maintainers to send the patches to?

Now to this change... it seems reasonable to refactor this into a
dedicated function or macro because this is largely "copy-and-paste"
calls with slight variable on a single argument.

How about proposing such a change instead?
Thanks, good idea, I have made a macro for it and am about to send the patch, it would be good to hear if it is what you were envisaging.
