Er.. sorry Greg, I have taken the recipient list from the original series posting, but this series should have been directed to the ARM-SoC maintainer. The patches are generalizing the OMAP mailbox driver to add support for ST's mailbox as well, and moving it to under /drivers/mailbox. The folder is new in 3.9, and the code under this, so far, has all been for ARM based chips. I guess the maintainer for this folder needs to be sorted out for the long-term.
