RE: [PATCH] [SCSI] aacraid: Use kmemdup rather than duplicating its implementation

aacraid@xxxxxxxxxxx goes to them, I may have done a boo-boo by exposing
the current underlying addressees. As it stands the patch was not
addressed to any of the aacraid maintainers. The correct answer would
have been for me to Cc: aacraid@xxxxxxxxxxxx

The MAINTAINERS file is *correct*. It has dealt with the arbitrary
transition of individual assigned maintainers within Adaptec (now PMC)
for nearly a decade now.

Sincerely -- Mark Salyzyn (former maintainer, interested party now)

Really? MAINTAINERS has:

AACRAID SCSI RAID DRIVER
M: Adaptec OEM Raid Solutions <aacraid@xxxxxxxxxxx>
L: linux-scsi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
W: http://www.adaptec.com/
S: Supported
F: Documentation/scsi/aacraid.txt
F: drivers/scsi/aacraid/

Should either or both Achim or Mahesh be added?
