I'm interested in maintenance of lpc18xx/lpc43xx, I have one board
powered by LPC4357, so it would make the maintenance easier for me,
also multiple controllers are equal on lpc18xx/lpc43xx and lpc32xx,
and thus familiar to me.

And I greatly appreciate Joachim's contribution, all platform drivers
written by Joachim are of perfect quality.

I'll send a patch to MAINTAINERS later on.
