No, it's not. oss-security is just another mailing list to report security vulnerabilities,
and not a canonical source.

2. Is there another source of comprehensive coverage of vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel, including but not 
necessarily limited to all CVEs issued for it?

This Debian repo has data on all public kernel vulnerabilities affecting
the mainline Linux kernel: https://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/kernel-sec/
