You need to send the patch to the right people, you definitely
need to send the patch to Mark Brown as he is maintainer for the
SPI subsystem so will be the person who applies your patch.

Additionally, you probably want to try to look for if there are
any active people on this particular spi driver and include them.
The script get_maintainer.pl is a good starting point although it
often includes too few people without the git option and too many
with the git option.

Thanks,
