Listing Ard and Jason as M: is fine with me.  I expect that in practice I'll be
applying the patches and doing the pull requests for now, so (as is often the
case with subsystems with multiple M:) in practice it will really be a primary
maintainer and backup maintainer(s).  But I'm happy to have Ard and Jason listed
in case one of them needs to step in.
