we discussed last week to put in place a tree grouping the cpuidle
modifications [1]. Is it possible to add the tree ?

git://git.linaro.org/people/dlezcano/cpuidle-next.git #cpuidle-next

Thanks for doing this.

Since MAINTAINERS is lacking a listed maintainer for cpuidle,
are you also going to add yourself as maintainer and list this
tree in that file, or is this a one-time exercise?

I will be glad to do that if Len and Rafael agree on that.

Len Brown has been a cpuidle maintainer for some time now.  Moreover,
he's been taking patches, but Linus refused to pull his entire tree during the
last merge window (as you probably know).  I honestly don't think this is
a good enough reason for replacing him as a cpuidle maintainer by force.

So, you should ask Len whether or not he's willing to pass the cpuidle
maintenance to someone else.

I know that Len hasn't been responsive recently, but I also know that he
_does_ respond to inquiries sent directly to him.

Thanks,
Rafael
