My apologies for the confusion. You're absolutely right about the
maintainer responsibilities.

I should clarify why I pinged you: You provided valuable feedback on
earlier versions of this series, including the DTS patches. Since those
changes were made based on your input but hadn't received confirmation,
I wanted to make sure they properly addressed your concerns. However, I
now understand that the SoC-specific patches (Kconfig, DTS, defconfig,
MAINTAINERS) should be reviewed by the ARM SoC maintainers.

Thank you for your reviews and for clarifying the proper process. I'll
follow up with Arnd for the remaining patches.

Best regards,
Albert
