That reminded me.. I got 'unknown recipient' replies
<nandor.han@ge.com>: 550 5.1.1 No such user - pp
<semi.malinen@ge.com>: 550 5.1.1 No such user - pp

from both Semi and Nandor - who seem to be the only maintainers listed
for XRA1403 GPIO EXPANDER in MAINTAINERS.

XRA1403 GPIO EXPANDER
M:      Nandor Han <nandor.han@ge.com>
M:      Semi Malinen <semi.malinen@ge.com>
L:      linux-gpio@vger.kernel.org
S:      Maintained
F:      drivers/gpio/gpio-xra1403.c
F:      Documentation/devicetree/bindings/gpio/gpio-xra1403.txt

Anyone knows new mail addresses or perhaps the separate entry
for XRA1403 should be removed?

In general - Which one is harder? xD

But this works for me.
