What's the issue here?  Other than _how_ the script was used,
I don't see an actual problem with the script itself.

As far as I can tell, the patch series address list was identical
for the 0/2, 1/2, and 2/2 submissions:

--------------------------------

vger has a limit on the number of recipients for a single email
so patch series that cc all possible recipients can be bounced
and not forwarded by vger.

So I think when submitting a patch series, it's necessary to send
just the cover letter to all mailing lists for all files/paths
modified by any file in the patch series and specific patches
are sent to maintainers, reviewers and the specific mailing lists
modified by the specific patch.

I use the scripts below to send patch series where a patch series
are the only files in individual directories.

(Well I used to use, I'm not actively reading or creating kernel patches right now)

$ cat ~/bin/to.sh
#!/bin/bash

opts="--nogit --nogit-fallback --norolestats --pattern-depth=1"

if [[ $(basename $1) =~ ^0000- ]] ; then
    ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl --nom $opts  $(dirname $1)/*
else
    maint=$(./scripts/get_maintainer.pl --nol $opts $1)
    if [ "$maint" == "" ] ; then
	echo "linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org"
    else
	echo "$maint"
    fi
fi


$ cat ~/bin/cc.sh
#!/bin/bash

opts="--nogit --nogit-fallback --norolestats"
maint_file=$(mktemp -t XXXXXXXX.cc)

if [[ $(basename $1) =~ ^0000- ]] ; then
    ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl $opts $(dirname $1)/* |  \
	~/bin/remove_undesirable_emails.sh > $maint_file
    count=$(wc -c $maint_file | cut -f1 -d" ")
    if [[ $count -lt 512 ]] ; then
	cat $maint_file
    else
	./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -nom -nor $opts $(dirname $1)/* | \
	    ~/bin/remove_undesirable_emails.sh
    fi
else
    ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl $opts $1 | \
	~/bin/remove_undesirable_emails.sh > $maint_file
    count=$(wc -l $maint_file | cut -f1 -d" ")
    if [[ $count -gt 0 ]] ; then
	cat $maint_file
    else
	./scripts/get_maintainer.pl --git --git-fallback --norolestats $1 | \
	    ~/bin/remove_undesirable_emails.sh
    fi
fi
rm -f $maint_file


$ cat ~/bin/remove_undesirable_emails.sh
grep -vPi "(?:\bIngo\s+Molnar\b)"

$

(nb: Ingo asked not to receive any emails from me)

And these scripts are used with git send-email with a .gitconfig block

[sendemail]
	chainreplyto = false
	thread = false
	suppresscc = self
	cccmd = ~/bin/cc.sh
	tocmd = ~/bin/to.sh

These scripts would have added 2 mailing lists to patch 0/n:

devicetree@vger.kernel.org (open list:OPEN FIRMWARE AND FLATTENED DEVICE TREE BINDINGS)
linux-renesas-soc@vger.kernel.org (open list:ARM/RISC-V/RENESAS ARCHITECTURE)

and it would also have had a different recipient list for 1/2 as well
