    Isn't that what send-pr is for?  Include your patch in the PR and
CC the maintainer.

    In the case of hardware, that's perhaps a different story, but you
could file a PR with a documentation change, so that it would make it
into either the FAQ or the handbook.

    At least that way, it would be trackable, and although it might
take some time before your change gets incorporated, it's less likely
to be lost outright.
