Subject: [PATCH] MAINTAINERS: drop me from PA-RISC maintenance

I don't even live in the same country as any of my PA-RISC hardware
these days, so the odds of me touching the code are pretty low.
(Also re-order things to ensure jejb gets CC'd since he's been the
primary maintainer for the last few years.)

I'll still assert that entries with no
actual person as a contact are unmaintained
and should be marked at best "odd fixes"
and more likely marked "orphan".
