A patch to MAINTAINERS adding this to Christians entry for the SoCs or as a standalone entry with Markus as maintainer would be more important and usefule than this though, so I'm throwing out that challenge!

Thanks. I am hopefully done the trivial changes to this driver now. > However we do not really recognize corporate bodies as maintainers, > only physical people whose GPG keys we can sign ... but I > guess you wanted to convey that the driver is the work of several > individuals inside BRCM and thus authors, while you take care > of the maintenance. That's exactly right. > A patch to MAINTAINERS adding this to Christians entry for > the SoCs or as a standalone entry with Markus as maintainer > would be more important and usefule than this though, so I'm > throwing out that challenge! I'll talk to Christian about this and see what we can come up with. Regards, -Markus
