Thanks! I notice that:

./scripts/get_maintainer.pl --scm -f drivers/gpu/drm/imx/ipuv3/imx-drm-core.c

Doesn't say drm-misc but also when I look at the MAINTAINERS file and
find the section for "DRM DRIVERS FOR FREESCALE IMX" it doesn't
explicitly list a different git tree. I guess the "shawnguo" git tree
listed by get_maintainer.pl is just from regex matching?

Would you expect this to go through drm-misc? If so, I'll probably
land it sooner rather than later. I can also post up a patch making it
obvious that "DRM DRIVERS FOR FREESCALE IMX" goes through drm-misc if
you don't object.

Thanks!
