He is aware of this change, but we missed sending this patch before his
last day. So, his email ID is inactive now. Hence, it was omitted.
Please let me know if there's anything I can do.

But employment does not matter for maintainership and has nothing to do
with it. Maintainership follows the person, not the company, you all
know this.
So for obvious reasons, I can't take this type of change without Rajesh
acking it.

I understand. After getting in touch with Rajesh, cc'ing him via his personal
email ID.
Rajesh, could you please provide your ack if you agree with this patch to
remove you as the maintainer for VMCI?
