Subject: [RFC 2/2] MAINTAINERS: add a limited ARM and ARM64 SoC entry
Date: Tue,  1 Dec 2020 23:15:16 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201201211516.24921-2-krzk@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20201201211516.24921-1-krzk@kernel.org>

It is expected for ARM and ARM64 SoC related code to go through
sub-architecture maintainers.  Their addresses were therefore not
documented to push patch traffic through sub-architecture maintainers.

However when patches touch generic code, e.g. multi_v7_defconfig, the
patch might not be picked up by them and instead should go to the SoC
maintainers - Arnd and Olof.

Add a minimal maintainer's entry for SoC covering only Makefile, so it
will not appear on most of submissions (except new devicetree boards).
It will though serve as a documentation and reference for cases when
submitter does not know where to send his SoC-related patches.
