Subject: [PATCH v3] MAINTAINERS: remove unreachable people that have left Atmel

When sending an email regarding a patch to wilc1000, you get the following
automatic replies:
"Sung_hoon Cho is no longer with Atmel Corporation."
"Kang_hee Park is no longer with Atmel Corporation."
"Dong_ho Shin is no longer with Atmel Corporation."
"Bo_moon Kim is no longer with Atmel Corporation."
"Min_su Kim is no longer with Atmel Corporation."
"Jun_hyuk Lee is no longer with Atmel Corporation."

Removing this entry since none of the maintainers are reachable.

Hi,

This is unfortunate, but Greg recommended we drop the whole entry for now [0].

If nobody with more experience volunteers, I am happy to continue cleaning and
supporting this driver. This hardware is used by people in the Raspberry Pi
community, which is why I think it is worth it [1].

I am going to contact Atmel and see if they can provide me with a more complete
datasheet than they one in their website [2]. Since I would need this, plus the
hardware, before I can commit to anything.

Hopefully somebody from Atmel steps up since they are the experts.

Thanks,
Luis
