RE: [PATCH] MAINTAINERS: update caam crypto driver maintainers list

[Sahil Malhotra (OSS)]

Hi Herbert,

Gentle ping on this one. Horia has reviewed it.

I have gone through the linux-crypto backlog and the CAAM series and bug reports still open there,
and the RSA/PKC ones have not had a technical response from our side.

I am working through that backlog now, starting with the RSA/PKC items
since those are the ones your removal proposal concerns:
  - the CRT parameter bounds fix [1];
  - Changwei's unmap plus DMA alignment series [2];
  - the two stale RSA bug reports [3][4], including whether they share a
    root cause with the above;
  - Richard's cbc(paes) series [5].

I will reply on each thread as I work through it.

On caampkc.c: the intent is to fix the reported defects rather than
remove the code, I will review them and get back to you in coming weeks.
