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. regards, dan carpenter
