Ah no worries, you've done right. I simply somehow didn't see the cc:
laurent. Wrt explicit Cc: in patches: I kinda prefer those, since once
merged and you have questions about a patch you still know whom to ping
(e.g. when it causes a regressions). Whereas cc's just in the mail headers
will be lost once merged.

Wrt cc'ing on all patches or just individual ones: People have different
ideas on that. Within the same subsystem I tend to cc just individual
relevant patches (using Cc: in the commit message), across subsystem
mailing lists I think cc'ing on everything is better (for full context).
