Ugh :) I guess this is based on my authorship of historical commit
53275a61bc7a ("devicetree: document ARM bindings for QEMU's Firmware
Config interface", 2015-01-13), and prehaps my R-b on commit
92aed5d6ba90 ("devicetree: update documentation for fw_cfg ARM
bindings", 2016-02-09).

However -- I totally can't maintain this file. (I mean I've probably not
done anything related to it in the past seven years, so I guess it's
time to admit that fact!)

Rob, would you please consider taking it over?

With my name+email replaced with yours:

Thank you!
Laszlo
