The old binding was not referenced in MAINTAINERS, at least I could not
find it.
My change does not affect status quo - orphaned files.

OTOH, some entries like Orion list specific files. Others like Marvell
list entire directory, which is their mistake in the first place.

There is a mess in this approach, but the mess exists before my patch.

Best regards,
