Hi Mauro,
sti and stm32 architectures don't have the same maintainers nor same
mailing list as you can see below:

but anyway, if this is really important for you to have a top folder to
group all ST stuff, we prefer to have "st" prefix than "stm":
> ./drivers/media/platform/st/sti/
> ./drivers/media/platform/st/stm32/
But one more time, our flavour is to stick to:
> ./drivers/media/platform/sti/
> ./drivers/media/platform/stm32/
Best regards,
Hugues.

Hi Mauro,
Ideally we would like to stick to sti/ and stm32/ at same level, as it
is done in various other locations:
./Documentation/arm/sti/
./Documentation/arm/stm32/
./arch/arm/mach-sti
./arch/arm/mach-stm32
./drivers/media/cec/platform/sti/
./drivers/media/cec/platform/stm32/
./drivers/gpu/drm/sti/
./drivers/gpu/drm/stm/
./sound/soc/sti/
./sound/soc/stm/
Is this possible to keep those media folders as is ?
If we add them under:
./drivers/media/platform/stm/sti/
./drivers/media/platform/stm/stm32/
They'll both be at the same level.
It has been increasingly hard to maintain media/platform, as the file
become too big and disorganized. Sorting it per-vendor seems to be the
best thing, as it will keep things better organized.
As a side effect, with such kind of change, it is now possible to
have a MAINTAINERS entry that would point to a mailing list and/or
some SoC maintainers/reviewers that should be c/c to all patches
affecting drivers/media/platform/<vendor>.
Thanks,
Mauro
