Mildly related:

Rob, would it make things a bit easier if we have you listed in
MAINTAINERS for the msm/freedreno driver ?

Uwe, you might have greater input if you explicitly CC the
{unofficial,} maintainer of the relevant driver. Some drivers don't
have one explicitly listed in MAINTAINERS, so git log tends to help
there :-)
