This subsystem never had an official tree and in the past I simply acked the 
code and patches was taken by you (or other maintainers) for inclusion... I know 
it's not usual by it worked as is since right now!

However if you prefer having an official tree even for LinuxPPS I can do it and 
then sending my pull requests to Linus! Just let me know what is better for you! :-)

Ciao,
