I'm happy to add additional paths/files, but without a MAINTAINERS entry,
how would anyone know to CC: that address?  I posted 3 versions of my
defconfig patchset before someone told me that I had to send it to
arm@...nel.org.

Anyway, I really hope it's not too late for my defconfig changes to make
4.12.  Please consider them.  Thank you.
