I added this entry after seeing checkpatch's MAINTAINERS warning,
but made its scope too broad. I'll separate the BL808 platform support
from the generic Rust serial abstractions in MAINTAINERS.

Yes, I'd like to extend BL808 support beyond serial. I have local work
on peripheral clock/reset support, pinctrl/GPIO, SPI and PWM, including
an SPI display on the M1s Dock.

I'd like to bring those pieces upstream incrementally as they are ready!

Thanks for review!

Best regards,
