Maybe because I felt drivers/ssb/ was outside my jurisdiction - and unlike
what alot of people may seem to think I'm not a full time MIPS kernel
hacker.

I can deal with SSB patch if you so desire - but I have no experience with
SSB, so I'd have somebody to rubberstamp non-trivial SSB patches before I
queue them up.  I can keep them either in the usual MIPS trees on
linux-mips.org or I could create a separate linux-ssb tree, depending on
what seems to be sensible.  Also, reading the entry in the maintainers
file I wonder if netdev is really the list of a choice?
