Hi,

s390x maintainership is currently a bit like a huge pile of stuff routed
through one person who is not even listed as the maintainer for some
of the areas. Let's try to clean this up a bit.

Patch 1 is basically making official what I actually have been doing in
the last months; that is, acting as the overall s390x maintainer. There
does not seem to be the concept of "overall arch maintainer" in MAINTAINERS
so far, so I added it.

Where I want to go is basically a submaintainership model for s390x,
i.e. that I integrate the work in various areas and send it on. Patch 2
serves as a step in that direction, as Thomas has volunteered to look
after the s390-ccw bios (thanks!)

If that works out well, I plan to split out other parts as well. That
would make a lot of sense for those parts which I lack documentation
for, and also for parts where other folks could do a good job as well.

Speaking of other people: Patch 3 adds David as an additional maintainer
for tcg (thanks!).

Cornelia Huck (3):
  MAINTAINERS: add myself as overall s390x maintainer
  MAINTAINERS: reorganize s390-ccw bios maintainership
  MAINTAINERS: add David as additional tcg/s390 maintainer
