Is that some new way? Yeah, there is a tendency to try to group the entries on a similar way on other subsystems. So, Laurent proposed to do that for new drivers. That's said, it makes no sense to rename the existing entries, as such patch would likely make lots of people unhappy by causing a great number of merge conflicts, but, as grouping the new entries seem to help some people that manually looks at MAINTAINERS, it sounds a good idea to do it for new drivers. One advantage of grouping the entries for new drivers is that this reduces the merge conflicts at MAINTAINERS, as it reduces the risk of two subsystems to touch at the same part of the file.
