I suggest removing the MAINTAINERS line with

	K:	xdp

as xdp is a pretty generic file/patch content
regex match for the K: type

$ git grep --name-only xdp | wc -l
236

Rather more files than desired.

The N: match is dubious too.

It's generally better to have specific lists of
maintained file patterns rather than using the
K: and N: pattern matches.
