[PATCH v2 0/2] MAINTAINERS: Deal with the linux-mips.org mess

[Maciej W. Rozycki]

Hi,

 Here's v2 of the patch series to address Ralf Baechle to have stopped 
responding and linux-mips.org gone down, and Thomas stepping up as a 
replacement maintainer.  This has been regenerated against the current 
version of MAINTAINERS.  Please apply.

 Previous iterations:

- v1 at: <https://lore.kernel.org/r/alpine.DEB.2.21.2410131952550.40463@angie.orcam.me.uk/>.

[PATCH v2 1/2] MAINTAINERS: Retire Ralf Baechle

[Maciej W. Rozycki]

Ralf Baechle has been inactive for years now and the linux-mips.org site 
has gone down.  No replacement contact information is available.  Thomas 
has been kind enough to step up as a maintainer for EDAC-CAVIUM OCTEON 
and IOC3 ETHERNET DRIVER.

Update MAINTAINERS, CREDITS, and .get_maintainer.ignore accordingly.

[PATCH v2 2/2] MAINTAINERS: Remove linux-mips.org references

[Maciej W. Rozycki]

The linux-mips.org site has gone down and no replacement is available at 
the moment.  Remove/update references in MAINTAINERS accordingly.  There 
are a bunch of Kconfig references still present; keep them around for a 
possible future update or for people to refer to via archive.org.

I didn't see this mail, but the v2 series in patchwork...
Applied to mips-next.
