[PATCH] MAINTAINERS: Ignore bios-tables-test in the qtest section

[Thomas Huth]

I'm very often getting CC: on rather large patch series that
modify the ACPI stuff of either ARM or x86, just because the
bios-table-test is often slightly involved here. I can't say
much about ACPI, and the bios-table-test is already covered
by the ACPI section in MAINTAINERS, so I'd rather prefer to
not getting automatically CC-ed on such patch series anymore.
If people want my opinion about qtest-related changes, they
can still put me on CC manually.

Right, the exact same pattern that you're going to exclude in this patch
from under "qtest" is already covered under "ACPI/SMBIOS":

F: tests/qtest/bios-tables-test*
