That's exactly what I meant, rather than a land grab on authority. But if you're unhappy having my name there, then just remove it; it just increases the odds that I'll miss relevant patches in the swamp of hundreds of patches to drivers I don't have any dealings with. And if this is some kind of proxy argument about scanout formats, then why not just go ahead and merge that? The only concerns came from, as you say, someone with no grounds to comment.
