I'd be fully on board with removing these maintainers, as I don't recall
hearing from any of them in years. (In fact, some of these addresses
don't have a single mail logged on lore.kernel.org/all/...) I just
didn't want to be the one to say it.

On the other hand, I regularly look at pretty much anything for mwifiex,
as long as the submitter is in relatively good faith. So I wouldn't mind
being a Reviewer (or Maintainer? what's the difference, when Kalle
does the committing anyway?). And that might qualify as "Odd Fixes", as
I don't plan on doing much more than keeping the lights on.

I'll submit the MAINTAINERS patch if you'd like.
