This clashes with the existing entry for NPCM, so
contributors can easily get confused about where
to send their dts patches.

I don't have a good solution here, but maybe you can
discuss this with the npcm maintainers (added to Cc)
to see how they would like to handle this.

For me, the easiest way would be to have a single
maintainer send me all the patches for both ma35d1
and npcm, but that may not be practical for you.

I would replace these with a single line

K:    ma35d1

that should have the same effect.
