Apparently these are going through Greg K-H.  I'll resend, with Greg
CC'd so he can pick it up from the mailing list.

Could you add an entry to the MAINTAINERS file so that Greg will be
CC'd automatically using get_maintainer.pl?  Is there a dedicated
list for FMC development?  That would go in the MAINTAINERS file as
well.
