As a maintainer, you review all patches for renesas_usbhs, and of these patches
will have to go through you.
There are three ways to achieve that:
  1. You collect all accepted patches, and forward them to GregKH with your
     Signed-off-by added,
  2. You collect all accepted ls -lpatches, publish them in a git tree, and
     ask GregKH to pull a branch or tag from your git tree,
  3. You ack all accepted patches, so GregKH knows which patches to apply.

Which way to choose depends on the volume of patches.
