If there are parts that are only used by networking, I'm definitely
fine with moving those out of drivers/soc into the respective users,
but as far as I can tell, all the code there is shared by multiple
subsystems (crypto, dma, usb, ...), so that would likely require
at least a reorganization.

Thanks, much appreciated. The QE driver is also used on
arm64/ls1043a, but I have not seen any email or pull requests
from Qiang Zhao for that driver either.
The previous setup was that Li Yang picked up patches for
anything under drivers/soc/fsl/ and forwarded them to
soc@xxxxxxxxxx for me to pick up.
I would very much like to get back to the state of having
one or two maintainers for all of drivers/soc/fsl/ and
not have to worry about individual drivers under it when
they are all maintained by different people.
Shawn Guo is already maintaining the arm64 side of
Layerscape in addition to the i.MX code. Herve Codina in
turn has taken responsibility for qe/qmc.c and qe/tsa.c.
Maybe you can pick one more more maintainers for
drivers/soc/fsl/ between the three of you to collect
patches into a git branch and send pull requests to
soc@xxxxxxxxxx?
