We exclude wireless drivers from the netdev@ traffic, to delegate
it to linux-wireless@, and avoid overwhelming netdev@.
Bluetooth drivers are implicitly excluded because they live under
drivers/bluetooth, not drivers/net.

In both cases DT bindings sit under Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/
and aren't excluded. So if a patch series touches DT bindings
netdev@ ends up getting CCed, and these are usually fairly boring
series.
