Hi,

No worries, but please do remove next time, for two reasons:

a) even for I2C clients, the i2c-list is usually not added if the client
   only uses standard I2C communication. If there is something which
   needw special attention, OK. But most of the time, the list is for the
   I2C core and bus master drivers, and not clients.

  (That might be different for I3C, though...)

b) if the patch in question is "self-contained" in the I3C world and not
   affecting I2C, I think there is no need to add I2C. Interested
   parties can subscribe to the I3C list.

Yes, that was a good occasion to write this publicly.

Thanks,

   Wolfram
