Looking through git log and the linux-scsi archives, it seems that
Vinayak vanished after 2013. Removing him as a maintainer will make
get_maintainer.pl generate the list of relevant contributors.

I started contributing to the UFS, but currently I am managing one of the driver
development teams in Synopsys, so my bandwitdh is now low.

Currently I have a person in my team that is very involved in SW development for
UFS Host and we have plans to improve Synopsys driver and submit the improvements.

I was planning to send this week a patch to add my team member as Maintainer of
the Synopsys UFS driver and if you agree I could suggest him to pick the total
UFS maintenance.

Please let me know your thoughts about this.

regards,

Joao

As far as I'm concerned, "Supported" or "Maintained" is better than "Orphan" ;-)

@Vinayak, do you want to remain as maintainer?
Should your email address be updated?

@Joao, is your team member still interested?
I can send a patch adding him as maintainer, what's his name and address?

Is anyone else interested in being maintainer for drivers/scsi/ufs/ ?

Regards.

Yes, we are interested. I was planning to send a patch to put my team member
Pedro Sousa (pedrom.Sousa@synopsys.com) maintaining DWC UFS driver and so if
there are no objections I can send an e-mail adding Pedro as UFS and DWC UFS
maintainer.

Please let me know you thoughts,

Joao
