Hi Murali, hi Arvid,

also no work on PRP from my side.

Should be pretty straight forward to get PRP support from the existing HSR code.

Hi Murali,

I'm not aware of anyone working on PRP support.

I will have very little time, if any, to help out with this (or even test 
changes).
In fact, if you want to send a patch for the MAINTAINERS file to take over 
maintainership of the HSR/PRP driver, that would probably be a good thing.

(I'm CC'ing also Peter Heise to this conversation, since he's done some recent 
work on the HSR driver, and might want to keep updated.)
