Thanks for the context, that sounds great -- more maintainers and
reviewers are needed in the kernel.

But, of course, it is up to Stephen.

Another possibility Stephen could perhaps like if he doesn't want a
co-maintainer for everything is having a sub-maintainer for the Rust
side, possibly in a sub-entry (e.g. "COMMON CLK FRAMEWORK [RUST]",
i.e. with the usual square brackets we use for that), assuming you are
interested in that.

It is an approach that we have seen works well, because it is usually
a win-win for maintainers that cannot commit time to review new Rust
stuff, i.e. they get more people in their subsystem, they can use the
opportunity to learn Rust (assuming they don't know it yet) and they
can assess how often Rust changes are needed, yet they still control
the changes (e.g. in cases a change on both sides needs to happen at
once).

[ In any case, I don't know the context behind all this -- if I can
help with anything, please let me know. ]

Thanks!

Cheers,
Miguel
