Why the hell are you even wondering? You didn't send the patch to me. It's that damn simple. Harvey did. I do *not* troll the internet for random patches to apply. But I do apply random patches that fix build errors etc, WHEN THEY ARE SENT TO ME. That said, I'm not asking people to send patches directly to me when there is a maintainer that can handle it, but obviously when people do send obvious patches that I feel comfy applying and make sense to apply, I'll do so. In other words, don't send cleanup patches to me when there is a maintainer, but if there is a build fix or an oops/security fix that you want to go into my tree asap, feel free to short-circuit maintainership. This should be neither new nor surprising to anybody.
