Subject: [PATCH] MAINTAINERS: Add Andrew as M: to ARM/NUVOTON NPCM
 ARCHITECTURE

Nuvoton's NPCM SoCs are part of their iBMC product line[1]. NPCM arch
patches have historically gone through Joel's tree along with ASPEED
changes due to their relevance to OpenBMC. Commit df5e674c7a99
("MAINTAINERS: Switch ASPEED tree to shared BMC repository") does what
it says on the tin - we now have bmc/linux.git on git.kernel.org, and
I've picked up the maintainer role for it.

Document that I'm continuing to apply NPCM arch patches from the
openbmc@ list to the BMC tree for PRs to the SoC tree.

I'd like acks from the current NPCM maintainers as confirmation of
this arrangement, but in my view the only concern is that it just
hasn't been documented until now. I'll follow-up by sending this
to soc@...ts.linux.dev for merging unless there's any opposition or
preference otherwise.
