Whether or not the review goes to a mailing list is up to each
subsystem to determine.  Some people have violently objected to the
review going to the mailing list, which is why it's optional.

I have asked to have ext4 reviews to be cc'ed to the linux-ext4
list[1].  It would be up to the VFS maintainers whether or not we want
to enable it for linux-fsdevel.

The XFS maintainers can request if patches cc'ed to linux-fs should
get reviewed and sent back to authors and/or the maintainers and/or
the linux-fs mailing list.  You can either ask the Sashiko devs to
edit the email_policy.toml file, or you can send a pull request yourself.
