How about cc:ing the netpoll maintainer?Is there a new one or do you suggest possibility of abusing the authority of the netpoll's author with such trifles...?!I'm just subtly suggesting that if you're going to have a discussion about netpoll, you ought to cc: me.
Thanks! I'm very honored. I've suspected there is some subtlety, but wasn't sure of possible new patches to MAINTAINERS, so tried to be subtle too...

There are some notions about "other diagnostic tools" in some net drivers, eg. 3c509.c, so there would be a little bit of work if, after changing this, they really exist (and even if not - maybe it's reasonable to save such possibility for the future?).I created it for netpoll, only netpoll clients have ever cared.
So, probably you're the best person to change this! Alas, it seems, for some time any changes to netpoll could have a cold reception here (pity for Ingo's laptop...). Regards, Jarek P.
