Hello Barry,
I'm so sorry for the confusion.
The reason is that the movement in the tools/dma modification involves
modifications to the MAINTAINERS and decisions about which tree to pull
into. So, my original intention was to sync up with both you and Marek
on this: first update the MAINTAINERS file, and then proceed with
uploading the changes to tools/dma. Maybe I should mention this in the
last version of tools/dma modification.

Thank you so much for your understanding.
