Actually I don't think I ever merged lib/zstd.  I did take
crypto/zstd though which is the Crypto API wrapper around the
lib/zstd code.

Since the current contention is with lib/zstd I think it probably
makes sense for Linus to take it directly.

I think you should certainly be the maintainer of lib/zstd since
it was added by you and mostly used by you too :)

Thanks,
