Sending contributors around like this is quite uncool.

1st, it should not matter much in which directory the driver lives.

2nd, there's no reasonable way for contributor to proceed if he gets
"stuck" between two maintainers.

Can you discuss with MFD maintainers, and provide clear guidance?

Thanks,
