Yes, that's the standard way.

But this is a non-standard situation: the change cannot be
implemented without knowledge about and not verified without access
to the hardware.  We depend on the help of the board maintainers
and/or users.

We can only try to Cc: those who are listed in the MAINTAINERS file.
There are some orphaned boards for which it is not clear if anybody
still cares about these, or who.

Well, you would probably notice when your board does not build any
more ? ;-)

I came home the other night and tried to open the door  with  my  car
keys...and  the  building started up. So I took it out for a drive. A
cop pulled me over for speeding. He asked me where I  live...  "Right
here".                                                - Steven Wright
