Hi David, Heiner, Andrew, Russell,

This patch series aims at allowing myself to keep track of the Ethernet
PHY and MDIO bus drivers that I authored or contributed to without
being listed as a maintainer in the PHY library anymore.

Thank you for the fish, I will still be around.

This builds on top of Andrew's series:

I applied this to 'net' because I think it's important to MAINTAINERS
information to be as uptodate as possible.

Thanks Florian.

Humm sure, however some of the paths defined in patches 4 and 5 assume 
that Andrew's series that moves PHY/MDIO/PCS to separate directories. I 
suppose this may be okay for a little while until you merge his patch 
series?

Aha, I see.  I think it's ok for now.

I should have probably made it clearer that this depended on Andrew's 
patch series as opposed to simply building on top of it.
