Hmm - this is a little awkward.  You remove yourself as maintainer of
this code, then delete it.

I suspect what you want to do is have patch 1 simply add tools/test
saying "include other memshr content", and this patch delete
tools/memshr including the entry in the maintainers file.  (Can be fixed
up on commit of course, seeing as this is the only issue.)

Overall, I agree with the change, but it will need a tools ack.
