Hi Sergey,

I don't know the back story to this, if there is one.
But could I suggest that:

1. The patch also updates the title MAINTAINERS section to cover the
   remaining two drivers.

   e.g.: RENESAS ETHERNET DRIVERS ->
         RENESAS ETHERNET AVB AND SUPERH ETHERNET DRIVERS

   Or alternatively, create separate sections for each driver.

   n.b.: This may involve moving sections to maintain alphabetical order
         by section title

2. Reaching out to Shimoda-san (CCed) or other relevant parties
   to see if an appropriate maintainer or maintainers for the
   Renesas Ethernet Switch driver can be found.

   n.b.: It may still be a holiday period in Japan for the rest of the week.

3. Rephrase the subject and patch description as splitting out maintenance of
   the Renesas Ethernet Switch driver .
