I tried a couple of things to reinvigorate the stmmac maintainers over the last few years but with little effect. The maintainers are not active, let the MAINTAINERS file reflect reality. The Synopsys IP this driver supports is very popular we need a solid maintainer to deal with the complexity of the driver. gitdm missingmaints says: Subsystem STMMAC ETHERNET DRIVER Changes 344 / 978 (35%) Last activity: 2020-05-01 Alexandre Torgue <alexandre.torgue@foss.st.com>: Tags 1bb694e20839 2020-05-01 00:00:00 1 Jose Abreu <joabreu@synopsys.com>: Top reviewers: [75]: horms@kernel.org [49]: andrew@lunn.ch [46]: fancer.lancer@gmail.com INACTIVE MAINTAINER Jose Abreu <joabreu@synopsys.com> Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> -- We could add an entry to AUTHORS, but a quick git log doesn't show huge number of patches or LoC.
