Ideally it would be in the subsystem's profile document as described in the MAINTAINERS file: P: Subsystem Profile document for more details submitting patches to the given subsystem. This is either an in-tree file, or a URI. See Documentation/maintainer/maintainer-entry-profile.rst for details. although that seems to be overkill IMHO just to add a prefix: setting. You could just clone some other maintainer's Profile document and then modify it to anything that you would like to have in it as far as Maintaining and patching are concerned. > I did assume it will take at least a year or two before people get used > to the new prefix, but my patchwork script has a check for this and it's > trivial to fix the subject before I commit the patch.
