[U-Boot] STi U-boot git tree request

[Patrice CHOTARD]

Hi Tom

As kernel maintainer of STi machine (STMicroelectronics STiH407 family
SoC), i am currently adding STiH407 support on U-boot 
(https://www.mail-archive.com/u-boot at lists.denx.de/msg239825.html).

I am wondering if i need to get a custodian git tree for this machine in 
order to do pull-request to the uboot-arm maintainer.

It already exists a u-boot-stm custodian which is not more used (no 
activities since Sun, 6 Jan 2013) and declared as orphan in MAINTAINERS 
file. It was originally dedicated to SPEAR.

To sum-up, do i need to have a custodian git tree ?
if yes, can i reuse the already u-boot-stm tree or do i need to ask for 
a new one ?

Thanks

Patrice

In general, I'm happy to just pick up these patches and apply them.  We
can evaluate as needed later on if it makes sense to add a tree to make
things easier or if the load is small enough that I can just grab them.
Thanks!
