Hi Kumar,
For meta-intel, it's pretty simple and is summarized by this blurb from
the meta-intel MAINTAINERS file:
"Please submit any patches against meta-intel BSPs to the Yocto mailing
list (yocto at yoctoproject.org)."
Basically, new patches get submitted to the mailing list, go through the
standard on-list comment and review process, and then get pulled into
master by whoever maintains the BSP when everything looks good.
Hope that helps,
Tom
