I am afraid this does not work at all.


Do you mean this?

F:    drivers/mtd/

Let's see the last part of the MAINTAINERS:

THE REST
M:      Tom Rini <trini at ti.com>
L:      u-boot at lists.denx.de
Q:      http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/uboot/list/
S:      Maintained
T:      git git://git.denx.de/u-boot.git
F:      *
F:      */


This entry does __not__ mean everything is maintained by Tom,
but Tom owns all the rest that is not covered by somebody else.




MTD
M:	Heiko Schocher <hs at denx.de>
S:	Maintained
T:	git git://git.denx.de/u-boot-mtd.git
F:	drivers/mtd/


I think this makes sense.





Let's study from linux/MAINTAINERS!



MEMORY TECHNOLOGY DEVICES (MTD)
M:      David Woodhouse <dwmw2 at infradead.org>
M:      Brian Norris <computersforpeace at gmail.com>
L:      linux-mtd at lists.infradead.org
W:      http://www.linux-mtd.infradead.org/
Q:      http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/linux-mtd/list/
T:      git git://git.infradead.org/linux-mtd.git
T:      git git://git.infradead.org/l2-mtd.git
S:      Maintained
F:      drivers/mtd/
F:      include/linux/mtd/
F:      include/uapi/mtd/


[snip]

ONENAND FLASH DRIVER
M:      Kyungmin Park <kyungmin.park at samsung.com>
L:      linux-mtd at lists.infradead.org
S:      Maintained
F:      drivers/mtd/onenand/
F:      include/linux/mtd/onenand*.h








BTW, "CFI FLASH" entry is questionable.


CFI FLASH
M:	Stefan Roese <sr at denx.de>
S:	Maintained
T:	git git://git.denx.de/u-boot-cfi-flash.git
F:	drivers/mtd/*


Do all the files in drivers/mtd
belong to CFI FLASH subsystem?
