Thanks Paul.

If the recent commits that Linus did just before v5.7-rc1:

3b50142d8528 ("MAINTAINERS: sort field names for all entries")
4400b7d68f6e ("MAINTAINERS: sort entries by entry name")

don't create too many problems I suppose

$ scripts/parse-maintainers.pl --order --input=MAINTAINERS --output=MAINTAINERS

could be run just before every -rc1 to keep all this stuff organized.

We'll see.
