Subject: MAINTAINERS: Wrong ordering in DYNAMIC INTERRUPT MODERATION

Hi Jakub,

with your commit 9b038086f06b ("docs: networking: convert DIM to RST"), 
visible on next-20200505, ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -f MAINTAINERS 
complains:

WARNING: Misordered MAINTAINERS entry - list file patterns in alphabetic order
#5966: FILE: MAINTAINERS:5966:
+F:	lib/dim/
+F:	Documentation/networking/net_dim.rst

This is due to wrong ordering of the entries in your submission. If you 
would like me to send you a patch fixing that, please just let me know.

It is a recent addition to checkpatch.pl to report ordering problems in 
MAINTAINERS, so you might have not seen that at submission time.


Best regards,

Lukas
