[PATCH] MAINTAINERS: brcmnand: update STB BRCMNAND driver maintainer
Posted by William Zhang 3 years, 9 months ago
As the BCMBCA chip uses the same nand controller as STB chip and I
have been working on this driver internally in Broadcom, I'd like
to join the maintainer group of this driver and expect to contribute
changes to support BCMBCA chips, general driver changes and review
incoming patches as well.

While at it, we could probably rename the entry to: BROADCOM NAND FLASH 
DRIVER since this controller is pretty much ubiquitous in all of what 
Broadcom did produce that runs Linux, that is, it was not STB specific 
very long.

Thanks for stepping in!

Sounds good.  Will update that as well.
