Subject: Re: [PATCH] lib: scatterlist: add sg splitting function

Hi Andrew,

There was no review for a couple of weeks I'm afraid on this patch. Could I know
what I can do to push it up ?

And another question : do you want another patch to add a MAINTAINERS entry for
this sg_split ?

Cheers.

[1] The posted patch

>  - in the trickier YUV422 case, 3 DMAs will pump data from the camera
