Kyle McMartin joined the linux-firmware maintainers, and we now
have an alias <[email protected]> which reaches all of us.
Include that instead of the individual addresses.
Add some further recommendations that were already included in the
README in linux-firmware.git added by Xose Vazquez Perez
<[email protected]>.
