Hello Luis,
in the Linux kernel there's a MAINTAINERS file and additionally
the get_maintainer.pl script shows up the maintainers:
user@host:~/linux$ scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f drivers/pcmcia
Bjorn Helgaas <bhelgaas@google.com> (commit_signer:5/13=38%)
Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> (commit_signer:5/13=38%)
Yijing Wang <wangyijing@huawei.com> (commit_signer:2/13=15%,authored:2/13=15%)
"Rafael J. Wysocki" <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com> (commit_signer:2/13=15%,authored:1/13=8%)
Rob Herring <rob.herring@calxeda.com> (commit_signer:2/13=15%,authored:2/13=15%)
Yinghai Lu <yinghai@kernel.org> (authored:2/13=15%)
Libo Chen <libo.chen@huawei.com> (authored:2/13=15%)
linux-pcmcia@lists.infradead.org (open list:PCMCIA SUBSYSTEM)
linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org (open list)
So you should post your driver on either linux-pcmcia@lists.infradead.org
and linux-can@vger.kernel.org.
I've done the EMS PCMCIA CAN driver due to the same reason (I had some of
them laying around at work). I would take a look into the PEAK/EMS_PCMCIA driver
and especially into the Softing driver from Kurt drivers/net/can/softing.
Try to send the patch with 'git send email' with proper "Signed-off-by:"
information. See:
linux/Documentation/SubmittingPatches
The patches should be based on linux-can/linux-can-next (on gitorious.org)
According the CAN stuff it should be in sync with
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next.git
which is the next step in the upstream process.
Regards,
Oliver
