Reasons for the list and additional info:

Honestly, the main motivation is to allow sending Sashiko review
for changes in PRINTK and VSPRINTF subsystems as a reply to
the mailing list.

I have discussed this with John at Plumbers conference. We both
agree that Sashiko review is useful and often has to be addressed.
It is much easier to reply a mail than searching for the review
via the WebUI, copy/paste it to a mail, and comment on it.

In addition, there are several people interested into printk and
string formatting code. The mailing list would make it easier to get
all interested people notified about new patches and problems
in this area.

That said, printk and string formatting are related only to some
degree. The printk() code is more about tricks how to store
the messages and show them in various context. While the string
formatting is about tricky buffer manipulation and helpers for
generating a human readable output of various data structures.

There is only partial overlap of people interested into these
two areas. Each group might deserve its own mailing list. But
I would start simple with a common mailing list. We could always
add another one when needed.
