Re: [PATCH v14 00/16] Add audio support in v4l2 framework

[Hans Verkuil <hverkuil@xs4all.nl>]

Hi Shengjiu,

I was about to prepare a pull request for this when I realized that
entries for the new drivers need to be added to the MAINTAINERS file.

Can you post patches 'v14 17/16' and 'v14/18/16' adding entries for each
new driver?

Thank you,

	Hans
