While I'm sure it would be good to continue to CC folks, I'm not sure
if the timekeeping maintainers would be the right folks for these
driver/ptp/ changes to flow through.
Thomas has been doing the heavy lifting for a long while and I'd not
want to put more on his shoulders.

Richard is listed as the maintainer for drivers/ptp/, is there any
reason for it not to go through him?
