CC: entries have very little actual value in a changelog anyway.

I almost always write patches against -next
$ git grep "immediately followed by" next-20190418 -- scripts/checkpatch.pl
next-20190418:scripts/checkpatch.pl:# Check Co-developed-by: immediately
followed by Signed-off-by: with same name and email
next-20190418:scripts/checkpatch.pl:
"Co-developed-by: must be immediately followed by Signed-off-by:\n" .
"$here\n" . $rawline);
next-20190418:scripts/checkpatch.pl:
"Co-developed-by: must be immediately followed by Signed-off-by:\n" . "$here\n"
. $rawline . "\n" .$rawlines[$linenr]);

commit 6c5d24eef7be7adfcb608f2852ab69b58935133b
Author: Sean Christopherson <sean.j.christopher...@intel.com>
Date: Fri Mar 22 14:11:37 2019 -0700
checkpatch: Warn on improper usage of Co-developed-by
The purpose of Co-developed-by: is to give attribution to authors who
aren't already attributed by the From: tag, i.e. who aren't the nominal
patch author. Because Co-developed-by: is essentially a variation of
From:, it must be accompanied by a Signed-off-by: of the associated
co-author. To ease the burden of determining whether or not co-authors
have signed off, Co-developed-by and Signed-off-by: must be explicitly
paired, i.e. on consecutive lines for a given co-author.
