Huh? Frankly, I don't care who will be accredited for this, provided
that this gets fixed. Yet, I'm lost with your comment.
Did I miss some other patch at the ML touching it?
At patchwork, it seems that there are only two patches:
https://patchwork.linuxtv.org/project/linux-media/list/?state=*&q=MAINTAINERS
the one from you, that assumed that this file got removed
and does:
-F: include/media/atmel-isi.h
And my alternative proposal, that changes it to reflect its
current location:
-F: drivers/media/platform/atmel/atmel-isi.c
-F: include/media/atmel-isi.h
+F: drivers/media/platform/atmel/atmel-isi.*
Both are based on Joe's "Bad MAINTAINERS" report e-mail.
My patch follows one of the two possible solutions proposed by
Joe.
He is already credited as reporter there:
MAINTAINERS: fix location for atmel-isi.h file
The location of this file got changed by changeset 40a78f36fc92
("[media] v4l: atmel-isi: Remove support for platform data"), but
MAINTAINERS was not updated accordingly.
Fixes: 40a78f36fc92 ("[media] v4l: atmel-isi: Remove support for
platform data")
Reported-by: Joe Perches <[email protected]>
He could also have a "Suggested-by" there. I'm perfectly fine
adding it.
However, using his name as the author of the patch, without his
permission, doesn't sound right.
That's said, I'm perfectly fine to drop this patch and wait for
Joe to send me the same change with him as the author of such
change.
Thanks,
Mauro
