Currently I am managing the Synopsys drivers & tools team (full-time) and
so I am passing the DWC UFS driver maintenance to Pedro Sousa.

Shouldn't people have proven to be willing to stick around before being
added as a kernel maintainer? Additionally, what is the experience level of
Pedro with kernel development? All I know is the following:

$ git log --author "Pedro Sousa" | wc -l
0
$ git log | grep -c "Pedro Sousa"
0

Are you aware that people who are not mentioned in the MAINTAINERS file are
allowed to review kernel patches?

Thanks,

Bart.

Hello Bart,

First of all thanks for the feedback.

Pedro Sousa is my team member and has been working in Unipro/UFS Synopsys
drivers for almost 2 years.

His work has been mainly internal, and now our goal is to start using the
mainline DWC UFS driver I submitted 2 years ago in our regular activities,
update and maintain it effectively as we are doing in other titles.

Currently I am Pedro' manager, and in my opinion he has the right experience for
this step and that is why I am suggesting to transfer Synopsys driver
maintenance from me to him.

Yes, I am aware and Pedro is perfectly capable of doing that, and for that
reason I am suggesting him as the right person to maintain Synopsys UFS driver.

Applied to 5.1/scsi-queue, thanks.
