 Obviously not here :-)

 Where to submit it to depends on where you're making changes.  There
is a script in the kernel source to help you:

./scripts/get_maintainer.pl <patchfile>

or

./scripts/get_maintainer.pl -f <sourcefile>


 Look carefully at the output and consider for each e-mail address if
it is really appropriate.  Common sense is important here.

 Arnout
