I looked in the MAINTAINERS file and didn't see his name anywhere. If it were there people might be more inclined to make sure they CC him on any capabilities related code.

You were probably looking at an inexcusably ancient kernel, like 3.3-rc7 or something. The MAINTAINERS file addition went in just before the 3.3 release.

It was even more inexcusable than 3.3-rc7 I hadn't done a pull since February 28th. The shame. I see that he is listed now.
