Thanks. I think I'll just remove the whole entry, meaning it will be
caught under the "LINUX FOR POWER MACINTOSH" entry.

Unless you object. Full patch below.

cheers

    MAINTAINERS: Remove the entry for the orphaned ams driver
    
    I no longer have any hardware with the Apple motion sensor and thus
    relinquish maintainership of the driver.
    
    Remove the maintainers entry entirely, meaning the code will now fall
    under "LINUX FOR POWER MACINTOSH".
