Luis told me you are the one wearing the modules hat for the moment. How
do you want to handle merging of patch 6 and subsequent maintenance of
the code?

I think we discussed you guys taking this under the current module
maintainer entry? If that is correct, will you add the new files to your
entry yourself, or should I include an update to MAINTAINERS in the next
version of this series?

If prefer another solution, let me know and we can figure that out.

Best regards,
