Of course you get it twice. I bet you are not subscribed to LKML where
this happens _any time_. As soon as you replied, your address will rest in
the Cc forever until someone takes it out manually (or hopefully the thread
dies some time). And of course, linux-kernel@ is also in the Cc or To
field, ergo, you get it twice.
Yes, there are some occasions when you only get one mail: when an MTA is
able to figure out that you are listed twice, e.g.:

From: jengelh@linux01
To: jengelh@linux01
Cc: jengelh@linux01
Subject: blubb

I will only get this mail once. But the MTA of Mr. Anonymous User does not
know that the linux-kernel@ (or opensuse, or whatever) address contains
myself too.
