This patch for DPDK Contributor's Guidelines indicates the repos
against which a new PMD should be prepared; for example, for new 
network ethernet PMDs it should be dpdk-next-net, and for new crypto
PMDs it should be dpdk-next-crypto. For other new PMDs, the  
contributor should refer to the MAINTAINERS file. Though this may seem
obvious, it is not mentioned in DPDK documentation.

The MAINTAINERS file is already part of the documentation:
	http://doc.dpdk.org/guides/contributing/patches.html#dpdk-maintainers
Should we add a reference to this chapter?

I don't think there is any need to include a link. There are lots of similar
references to the `MAINTAINERS` file in the same doc section.

I think the patch is fine as it is.
