It is somewhat on you to coordinate with others working on the same
driver.

As is often said, Maintainers are overloaded, and push whatever they
can onto developers. It should not need a Maintainer to get developers
to coordinate, they should be able to do that on there own. Since you
are subscribed to the netdev list, you can see the patches flying by,
you know who else is working on this driver. Please go talk to them.
