To be honest, this patchset thread was a bit less clear than anyone prefers. I use get_maintainers to get the initial list, and so adding arm@ or soc@ per a request tells me that perhaps those should be output via that script. > > I'm with Arnd on whether the code should be in drivers/soc or not -- > most of it likely should not. I think the misc drivers for a SoC that are a single user interface that is focused on the use-case that belongs to that SoC only belong in soc/, while if there is something we can do in common -- different story. If it makes sense to just have misc/aspeed/ instead of soc/aspeed -- would that align more? > > > -Olof
