For me six maintainers is way too much. Just last November I marked this
driver as orphan, I really do not want to add all these people to
MAINTAINERS and never hear from them again.

Ideally I would prefer to have one or two maintainers who would be
actively working with the drivers. And also I would like to see some
proof (read: reviewing patches and providing feedback) that the
maintainers are really parciticiping in upstream before changing the
status.
