commit 7683e9e529258d01ce99216ad3be21f59eff83ec
 Author: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@...ux-foundation.org>

     Properly alphabetize MAINTAINERS file
     
     This adds a perl script to actually parse the MAINTAINERS file, clean up
     some whitespace in it, warn about errors in it, and then properly sort
     the end result.
     
     My perl-fu is atrocious, so the script has basically been created by
     randomly putting various characters in a pile, mixing them around, and
     then looking it the end result does anything interesting when used as a
     perl script.

    ARM: SAMSUNG: make local s5p-dev-mfc in mach-exynos
    
    This patch moves s5p-dev-mfc from plat-samsung into mach-exynos
    because it is used for only exynos no other platforms.
