[PATCH] MAINTAINERS: change maintainers for macb Ethernet driver

[PATCH] MAINTAINERS: change maintainers for macb Ethernet driver

[nicolas.ferre]

From: Nicolas Ferre <nicolas.ferre@microchip.com>

I would like to hand over the macb maintenance to Théo, as I'm unable to
keep up with the recent flow of patches for this driver. After speaking
with Claudiu, he indicated that he is in the same position as me.
To help with this work, Conor has agreed to act as a reviewer.

I was given responsibility for this driver years ago, and I'm glad to
see it continue with talented developers.

Oh wait, I am too late.

Thanks for you work during all those years to both of you,
and thanks for the kind words Nicolas.
