I am not sure who to email. The maintainer seems to be on hiatus or 
super busy with other work.

So I added you to see if you know how to handle this.  Wolfgang Acked it 
but he said Marc needs to pull

it in.  We have quite a few users of this patchset. I have been hosting 
the patchset in a different tree.

These users keep pinging us for upstream status and all we can do is 
point them to the

LKML to show we are continuing to pursue inclusion.
