Subject: [PATCH 1/2] MAINTAINERS: Update entry for rtl8187

As Herton Ronaldo Krzesinski and Hin-Tak Leung are no longer active,
remove them as maintainers for rtl8187.

The git tree entry is also updated.

Same here, better to remove the git tree.

Actually it would be better to remove the git tree (T line) altogether.
get_maintainer.pl script will take take the git tree from the subsystem
entry anyway:

Explained from the other e-mail address - I have technical problems
(have had that for some years now) of sending pure-text e-mail message
from it. So I would ideally add this one to the list so I can respond,
but keep the old one for more frequent reading that doesn't require a
response. Or, if a single entry is really required, switch to the
gmail address. Thanks a lot.
