Subject: Serial subsystem maintainer?


Who is the maintainer for the serial driver stuff? The MAINTAINERS file
lists tytso, but the website mentioned in the file is rather outdated and
tytso doesn't answer my emails.

I guess that'd be me, although I'm not specifically looking after the
code in the existing 2.4 and 2.5 trees.

cool. I'm trying to get support for the AFAVLAB cards into serial.c since
2.4.0 days, but tytso never answered...

here's the patch, which still applies cleanly against 2.4.18-pre8:
