Add maintainer entry for ROHM/Kionix KX022A accelerometer senor driver.
Signed-off-by: Matti Vaittinen <[email protected]>

I can also add myself as a maintainer instead of a reviewer if it better
suits iio maintainer. I however don't plan setting up my own public
repository and hope the further patches will be merged via IIO tree.
So, as Geert once explained to me - In that case the difference between
me as a maintainer vs. a reviewer would be only really relevant to the
subsystem (in this case IIO) maintainer. The subsystem maintainer who
merges patches is allowed to take in changes acked by downstream
maintainer w/o obligation to do thorough review. (Downstream maintainer is
to be blamed if things explode :]). If ack is given by a reviewer, then
the subsystem maintainer has the full responsibility and should always
do the review. Or - this is how I remember our discussion went - feel
free to correct me if I am wrong :] In any case - please let me know if
you'd rather see M: not R: in front of my name for the kx022a.

Entirely up to you. I tend to take a look at all IIO patches but will
take a less detailed look if there is a tag from someone I've built
up trust with - doesn't matter if they are a maintainer of a particular
driver or not. I only ever look at MAINTAINERS when sending out patches,
never when reviewing except to perhaps moan that someone wasn't cc'd
who should have been!

In that case I'll keep the R as I have done with the other corners I've
touched.
