No worries, I'm calm. ?But if you're taking care of the patch
and not the nominal maintainers, likely the MAINTAINERS entry
should be updated.

Presumably the equivalent ubi patch will be handled in the

For drivers/mtd/ubi, Artem is also a nominal maintainer, but
last signed a patch in 2014.

Likely the MAINTAINERS entry for UBI should be updated too.

Maybe something like:
