Huacei, I absolutely salute this series, as it is, in my opinion, of
tremendous significance not only for Loongson, but also for KVM for
MIPS in general.

As you probably know, James Hogan left KVM for MIPS kernel
maintainership some time ago. It was really too bad, as he was and
still is, from my direct experience, an excellent colleague and
engineer.

KVM for MIPS kernel maintainership left orphaned put me (as the
maintainer for KVM for MIPS in QEMU) in an awkward position.

May I ask that you and me jointly assume KVM for MIPS kernel
maintainership? For me, it makes perfect sense, and I would certainly
enjoy working with you. If you agree, please add such patch at the end
of this series, in its next version.

Yours,
Aleksandar
