Hi Joel!

To explain my reasoning: given the list of unreviewed patches for
aspeed[1], I thought that the driver maintainers were busy or similar.
This happens all the time, so it would be no surprise. Andi is the
driver-comaintainer meanwhile, so an ack from him counts for me as well.

Agreed. We can always revert if you guys need more time fixing the issue
properly.

Thanks,

   Wolfram
