Whenever you know that you are going to miss the merge window, let me
know, and I will prepare a pull request.
This merge window I was not able to process all incoming patches, but I
did process a big part of them, so I could send a pull request to Linus
with your blessing.
But yes, knowing you for many years I know you are technically
excellent, so I would like you to have a final word, and this is why I
resisted to touch your tree directly.
However, I am fine to temporarily play your role whenever you know you
are going to be late.

Indeed.

Fine with me. Huang, Brian, how do you see your role? What can you do
and how will it help fixing the problem? Do you want to take care about
a small part of MTD (e.g., only gpmi driver) or the MTD overall?
Depending on what you are willing to do, we can figure how we can work
together.
