    My feelings as well when I get random serial bugs in bugzilla for drivers
    I have zero clue about and no one to assign them to. 8/

    Broadly, it's:

    arch/arm/*
    drivers/*/arm
    drivers/mfd/* (this fits at the moment, but whether it will in
                             the future depends what else appears there.)

    drivers/mmc/*
    drivers/serial* (though only the drivers in there actually using
                             serial_core - unfortunately some non-serial_core
                             drivers appear to have been placed in there.)

    include/asm-arm/*
    include/linux/8250*
    include/linux/serial*
    fs/adfs/*

    but there are various drivers authored by myself which I'd obviously be
    interested in CC'ed.
