chtls was removed, but inline_crypto still exists
% git ls-files drivers/net/ethernet/chelsio/inline_crypto
drivers/net/ethernet/chelsio/inline_crypto/Kconfig
drivers/net/ethernet/chelsio/inline_crypto/Makefile
drivers/net/ethernet/chelsio/inline_crypto/ch_ipsec/Makefile
drivers/net/ethernet/chelsio/inline_crypto/ch_ipsec/chcr_ipsec.c
drivers/net/ethernet/chelsio/inline_crypto/ch_ipsec/chcr_ipsec.h
drivers/net/ethernet/chelsio/inline_crypto/ch_ktls/Makefile
drivers/net/ethernet/chelsio/inline_crypto/ch_ktls/chcr_common.h
drivers/net/ethernet/chelsio/inline_crypto/ch_ktls/chcr_ktls.c
drivers/net/ethernet/chelsio/inline_crypto/ch_ktls/chcr_ktls.h
So the entry shouldn't be removed.
(otoh, the rest of the inline_crypto driver seems as well maintained
as the chtls part was, so maybe it should go away, where "it" can be
either the MAINTAINERS entry or the driver)
