CHAR and MISC DRIVERS
M:      Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
M:      Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
T:      git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/char-misc.git
S:      Supported
F:      drivers/char/*
F:      drivers/misc/*

But note, this is the merge window time, when patches are sent to Linus
that have been in linux-next prior to the opening of the window.  That
means I can't look at any new patches like this driver, until after
3.6-rc1 is out in a week or so.

So please be patient.

thanks,
