I honestly thought you had just missed these entries when you removed individual maintainership for the other usb-serial drivers with the motivation that the developers were not around and that maintainership for individual drivers did not make much sense anymore (as consolidation proceeds, I read). (These two entries were also not grouped with the others.) Oliver and perhaps also Mathias are still around, but the option driver is now down to about 200 LOC (including boilerplate) when not counting the id table, while the kl5kusb105 is currently at about 400 LOC (including boilerplate) since I converted it to use the generic implementation a few years ago. Oliver and Mathias, what do you think of this? Would you be willing to sign off on this patch?
