I usually expect that if the subsystem maintainer is involved, he's the one to pick it up.
If James' ack was "Linus, please take this directly, I'm busy and have nothing else pending", then I really would prefer to hear that exact thing. Otherwise I'm just going to ignore the patch "safe" in the knowledge that clearly the subsystem maintainer is aware of it.
