[ ... ] The MAINTAINERS file is not very helpful in this case. You need to send dtc patches to the devicetree-compiler list devicetree-compi...@vger.kernel.org Subscription info is at http://vger.kernel.org/vger-lists.html#devicetree-compiler After changes are made by the dtc maintainer, we pull the new version of dtc into the Linux tree. -Frank
