I submitted this driver but will shortly no longer have access
to hardware that uses it. The driver is quite widely used so
there may be someone out there that feels strongly enough to
step up and maintain it.

Thanks for your work on the driver, Will!  I'm CC'ing some recent
committers so they can volunteer to take over if they're interested.

Will, Thank you for your efforts.
It's interesting to me. I am ready to volunteer to maintain 'dw_mmc*' driver.
I would appreciate it if you let me know what you think.

Thanks,

It's probably best to send a patch adding an entry to MAINTAINERS then
get a couple of acks (Chris and myself anyway). Would it make sense to
co-maintain with Jaehoon Chung as you have both been active in
submitting patches from Samsung?

Sure, why not?
I'll have a talk with Chung. And then I'll do the next step.

Thanks,
