I'm looking to add content to the driver going forward and assumed net-next. Splitting the patch into 2 steps didn't make a lot of sense to me. Splitting the patch into 2 patches targeting 2 different repos makes even less sense. I assume the net MAINTAINERS list to be updated from net-next contributions on the next cycle. As I'm now outright deleting the lan9303.txt file, I'm getting the test bot error about also needing to change the rst file that references lan9303.txt. I'll do so in the next revision. The alternative is to drop the yaml, simply add to the old txt file, and be done with it. Your call. Regards, Jerry.
