Currently, I only wear the driver maintainer's hat when there's no other people looking into it, or when the patches would affect something that I'm working with. The advantage is that a patch get more reviews, with is good. Btw, em28xx is not auto-delegated. If it was received such delegation, it is likely because either Hans or Michael (or both) decided to add reviewing your patches on their todo list. Of course, if are there any dependency between the three patches in this series, that means that the entire 3 patch series will needed to be merged into just one sub-maintainers tree.
