Maybe it is.

David Vrabel should be able to ack/nack it.

By default, get_maintainer checks a 1 year history
for commits.  If a file hasn't had a modification
in over a year, it likely isn't maintained, it's
already perfect or it's obsolete.

You could change the get_maintainer history window
with --git-since=date

Anyway, if get_maintainer doesn't give you a result,
look at the git log for the file or look inside the
source code of the file itself.

Here's the _only_ commit for that file:

$ git log drivers/uwb/i1480/i1480-est.c
commit 1ba47da527121ff704f4e9f27a12c9f32db05022
Author: Inaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky.perez-gonzalez@...el.com>
Date:   Wed Sep 17 16:34:20 2008 +0100

    uwb: add the i1480 DFU driver
    
    Add the driver for downloading the firmware to an Intel i1480 device.
    
    Signed-off-by: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@....com>

And in the file:

 * Copyright (C) 2005-2006 Intel Corporation
 * Inaky Perez-Gonzalez <inaky.perez-gonzalez@...el.com>

So you should add Inaky to your patch cc list.

cheers, Joe
