Yes. Ideally with a patch adding an entry to MAINTAINERS for who ever
is volunteering to maintain it.
With drivers this old, my _guess_ is, those people still using them
are not your typical users, but enthusiasts with the skills needed to
do patch triage. Decide if AI/bot driver bug reports are worth fixing,
and patches generated by newbies are helpful/harmful, etc.
