Yeah, the whole 'driver maintainer' sketch could get pretty complex.
It's pretty clean-cut in the PWM subsystem as only one exists, but
Backlight and MFD have a whole bunch, and I don't usually wait for
them to Ack/Nack before applying or providing review comments.

I'm happy to play it however you like really.  I'm sure the boys and I
can handle it if you so wish.  Even better if you would say in the
MAINTAINERS file and provide review comments when patches are
submitted.  I do think all 'drivers/video/backlight' changes should go
in via the Backlight tree though.
