Do you suggest any alternate approach > in maintaining the drivers like cdx which do not have their own tree? Either you have the tree or person having the tree appears on maintainers output. There is no other option. If you refuse to take the patches and handle them, I claim this is orphaned from the kernel point of view, even if occasionally Greg takes these.

It already has been one week, but I guess two weeks is still acceptable for hobbyist. For company-related maintainership not really. Best regards, Krzysztof
