And I deleted it unread because it was just some random off list patch
with no context.  :(

Please follow the process covered in SubmittingPatches for making kernel
changes, but note that there's generic sound drivers as well as ASoC
ones.

In general it is a very bad idea to rely on get_maintainers, it is prone
to both false positives and missing relevant people.  It can be useful
to look at but you need to think about what it's telling you.  In this
case it should be fairly easy to tell that you ought to send the binding
documentation along with the driver.
