The email address of Jan Dumon bounces, and there is not relevant information

This patch is fine and I will apply it later, however I will make a
general statement that we list USB networking drivers very
inconsistently.

Specifically, some list linux-usb as the mailing list, others list
netdev.  We should figure out which one (or both) is the best to
specify, and apply that rule consitently to the MAINTAINERS file.

Thanks.

I don't want them :)

Seriously, I don't have a problem with the patches being cc:ed to
linux-usb as long as you will take them, as often times the issues
involved are USB specific things, not network driver-specific things, so
the developers here can weigh in on them.

Want me to make up a patch to do that?

thanks,
