Next time I won't forget that then. BTW the notes at the top of the MAINTAINERS
file don't explicitly say about the files-list order. Only about the
whole maintainers list entries order. Seeing the rest of the sub-entries like
L:, M:, etc. aren't ordered then it's probably better to have an explicit
statement, that files should be alphabetically listed, especially when
checkpatch.pl starts warning about that.
