You must CC the authors of patch you're fixing. 
get_maintainer will do that for you I don't understand why people can't
simply run that script :/ You CC linux-kernel for no apparent reason
yet you don't CC the guy who wrote the original patch.
If you could please explain what is going on maybe we can improve the
tooling or something.
