Given I figure you did this on with a -rc1 based tree, which would mean that what I wrote probably does not fit the bill, but I tried to do something along these lines with https://docs.kernel.org/process/maintainer-soc.html for which my target audience was people picking up maintenance of DT/soc drivers, which I hope there'll be a few of in RISC-V land soon... I suggested adding things to it, like putting the trees in linux-next etc, but review feedback suggested that was unsuited to a subsystem specific document. Thanks, Conor.
