Len Brown has been a cpuidle maintainer for some time now. Moreover, he's been taking patches, but Linus refused to pull his entire tree during the last merge window (as you probably know). I honestly don't think this is a good enough reason for replacing him as a cpuidle maintainer by force. So, you should ask Len whether or not he's willing to pass the cpuidle maintenance to someone else. I know that Len hasn't been responsive recently, but I also know that he _does_ respond to inquiries sent directly to him. Thanks, Rafael
