Maybe this isn't needed. Do you only want certain patches being cc'd to linux-security-module? Looking back at recent patches, it looked like it was a general request. If it is, I'll be more likely to remember if get_maintainers.pl brings it up. :)

Not sure which practices apply to IMA. I kind of tend to dilate to question does it make sense to CC to LSM for two reasons: 1. I think the original reason was that tpmdd mailing list was small. Now with the new linux-integrity mailing list up and running there is more eyes looking at the code. And more importantly the people are subscribed who use TPM for something, like IMA developers. 2. I don't remember ever reading within the time that I've been maintaining even a single comment from anyone that works with LSM's. The value of CC'ing there is not very significant, which means that most of the time the TPM traffic is just noise on that list. /Jarkko

Sounds about right, there used to be more security folk on LSM and not as many on the TPM list, but the new integrity list works well for TPM now.

I've seen requests to add linux-security-module to tpm patch submissions a couple of times recently, so just add the list to MAINTAINERS so get_maintainers.pl will mention it.
