Okay, I'll write a personal mail to Teddy. I think it could be a separate patch to allow more time for communication, but the problem is that, if the MAINTAINERS and the new changes are not merged at the same time, users who have problems may unable to see my name and E-mail address for reporting problems. I think I can send PATCH v3 early for your review, meanwhile I can write a personal E-mail to Teddy. > On Fri, Mar 22, 2019 at 01:17:59PM +0800, Yifeng Li wrote: > > SILICON MOTION SM712 FRAME BUFFER DRIVER > > +M: Tom Li <to...@tomli.me> > > Sorry, I am confused.

I use this name both in offline and online activities, and I've used it to contribute various patches to free and open source projects and mailing list discussions as well. But the "Signed-off-by" name is the legal name. Linux Kernel's "Developer's Certificate of Origin" requires the use of legal name in sign-offs. I think I should write my name as `Yifeng "Tom" Li` in MAINTAINERS to avoid the confusion. Thanks for your code review, I've noted your suggestions and I'll send PATCH v3 soon.
