I'm sorry. You should not have to send these changes to Linus. I should have carried it in my tree and proposed it to Linus.
I'll do that, if you don't mind.
I see it's landed. Sorry, all. I'll resolve to do a better job here.
As Nick said, no worries, these things happen. If going straight to Linus gave the impression that you did something wrong or inadequate, I apologize, as that was not the intention. I seem to recall even recently him saying that he does not mind applying patches directly from the mailing list and bypassing the maintainer/subsystem when it fixes an issue (cannot find the exact message I am thinking of but [1] is also good). Since this patch is small and limited in scope, I figured it was not worth any more pings.
That said, consistent ownership of arch/hexagon patches would not be a bad thing going forward :)
