At least the patch that adds me as the maintainer is Acked-by: Sascha
Hauer, who did the original work, and Arnd Bergmann who was involved in
the review process. Other people such as Shawn Guo and Mark Brown have
also been reviewing these patches and new patches have been contributed
by Eric Bénard, Axel Lin, Sachin Kamat, Alexandre Courbot, Alexandre
Pereira da Silva and Philip Avinash.

I'm adding all of them on Cc so they can ack this (I'm assuming acking
this email will suffice).

Right. I don't have any signatures on my GPG key, but I'm not aware of
any kernel developers in my area and unfortunately I don't get around
much either. I can request key-signing via users@...nel.org and see if
I missed anyone. I think that is the correct mailing list? I remember
reading about it a while back but I can't find the link anymore.
