Hello Stephen Boyd,
Okay, that's really not nice.
This is _not_ a question for Stephen. Stephen does _not_ co-maintain
clkdev or the clk API, but co-maintains CCF. I've no idea why you are
addressing this to Stephen when this is clearly a question for me to
answer.
The MAINTAINERS entry looks like this:
ARM/CLKDEV SUPPORT
M: Russell King [off-list ref]
L: linux-arm-kernel at lists.infradead.org (moderated for non-subscribers)
S: Maintained
F: arch/arm/include/asm/clkdev.h
F: drivers/clk/clkdev.c
We removed arch/arm/include/asm/clkdev.h in 34d2f4d3a4d6a6b ('ARM: Use
generic clkdev.h header'). Do you still need to be CC'd on the clkdev.c
changes?
Technically, it is redundant anyway, as I'm listed for all arch/arm
changes. However, the maintainership of arch/arm and the maintainership
of clkdev are separate, the explicit entry is quite right.
It's also right that it's retained, because if we stop using the generic
clkdev.h header, I want to be copied on such a change, and this entry
will allow checkpatch to list me as clkdev maintainer.
