From v1 [1]:

Maple tree is already used outside of mm, e.g. for regmap stuff and I also use
it in nouveau. Hence, I read this as moving maple tree to e.g. lib/ adjusting
the existing entry.

I personally think that - of course unless the affected people prefer otherwise
- it is usually best to keep a single maintainers entry for the C and the Rust
code. Maybe Alice can simply be added to the existing maintainers entry?

What do you think?
