+Cc Neil, Dmitry,

I pinged and pinged and wanted some sort of clarification here but one
month passed and nothing was clarified.

I could be understanding the DRM process wrong, but if no one picks up
trivial cleanups for 1.5 months, then to me subsystem is orphaned. I
will send respective MAINTAINERS update.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
