The r4k machine was introduced in 2005 (6af0bf9c7) and its last
logical change was in 2005 (9542611a6). After we can count 164
maintenance commits (QEMU API changes) with the exception of
1 fix in 2015 (memory leak, commit 3ad9fd5a).

This machine was introduced as a proof of concept to run a MIPS
CPU. 2 years later, the Malta machine was add (commit 5856de80)
modeling a real platform.


Since you queued this patch, do you mind adding Aurelien comment to the
patch description, as it appears important information:

'''
The Linux kernel support for this machine has been dropped more
than 10 years ago in this commit:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=302922e5f6901eb6f29c58539631f71b3d9746b8
'''

I was not sure when sending the patch, but as an improvement, we can
also remove Aurelien and Aleksandar Rikalo from the MAINTAINERS section.

And I assume we can also add (which was explicit in your previous patch):
Acked-by: Aurelien Jarno <aurelien@xxxxxxxxxxx>

If you want I can resend this patch with all that amended.


No need to resend, I'll fix the things while applying.

Thank you very much, very appreciated!
