The point of this mailinglist is mainly to make sure the actual maintainers (like Ben) already get patches that have some level of review, and they don't have to both with things like incomplete commit messages, whitespace changes, or other things that are "obvious" to people with more mainline experience. Once that has been achieved, the patches should be forwarded to Ben and linux-arm-kernel (or whatever other apropriate mailinglist/maintainer depending on the files the patch touches) for actual merging. The fact that Ben has decided to also hang out on this list and spend some of his time on review is of course great, but we cannot be sure how much time he can dedicate to this. The amount of code that Samsung System LSI needs to push is very big, and not everything is already in as good a shape as the patches that you have seen so far.
