Subject: MODULE_DESCRIPTION() patches with no maintainer action

Andrew & Greg,

I hate to bother you with such mundane patches, but the following have been
posted for a while without any maintainer or reviewer comment or action, and
they have not yet landed in linux-next.

What is the path forward to have these MODULE_DESCRIPTION() warnings fixed?

arch/arm/probes/kprobes/
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240622-md-arm-arch-arm-probes-kprobes-v1-1-0832bd6e45db@quicinc.com/

arch/x86/mm/
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240515-testmmiotrace-md-v1-1-10919a8b2842@quicinc.com/

drivers/spmi/
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240609-md-drivers-spmi-v1-1-f1d5b24e7a66@quicinc.com/

(note that beyond these 3 patches I still have an additional 13 patches which
need to land in order to fix these warnings tree-wide, but those 13 patches
have had recent maintainer or reviewer action so I'm not seeking your help at
this time).
