Posted by Lukas Bulwahn 2 weeks, 2 days ago

Commit d8f87aa5fa0a ("net: remove HIPPI support and RoadRunner HIPPI
driver") removes the hippidevice header file, but misses that there is
still a file entry in MAINTAINERS referring to it.

Thanks Lukas,

I agree this is the case.

But unfortunately our CI seems to be confused about which
tree to test it against. So could you resubmit targeting net-next
like this?

Subject: [PATCH v2 net-next] ...

And note under the scissors, below your Signed-off-by, why the change since
v1: targeting net-next.  b4 can help with this.

Feel free to also add:

It's alright, we don't really have any tests for MAINTAINERS in the CI,
anyway.
