thanks. There is another rtc change that I didn't receive any feedback
for from a maintainer:

	rtc: pxa: drop unused #define TIMER_FREQ

. In the meantime I send a pull request asking to ignore that I didn't
get any maintainer reply for the rtc changes. Do you think it's sensible
to change the entry in MAINTAINERS? Any combination of:

	a) drop Alessandro's M: line
	b) add you
	c) change Status from Maintained to Odd Fixes or Orphan

fine, thanks

I'll wait for some time now before adding your ack to my tree to prevent
that you give me an ack for the other change just when I sent a new pull
request :-)

Uwe
