Andy, I did run on next-20200203:

$ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -f MAINTAINERS

That issue in MAINTAINERS has a pending patch since 2019-12-07, with three 
attempts of asking to be picked up by now:

- https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20191207182751.14249-1-lukas.bulwahn@gmail.com/
- https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200116185844.11201-1-lukas.bulwahn@gmail.com/
- https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200204040434.7173-1-lukas.bulwahn@gmail.com/

It is not related to this patch in MAINTAINERS here.


I also ran $ perl ./scripts/parse-maintainers.pl and checked the generated 
diff for this entry, but there was no reordering required; a one-element 
list of F: entries is difficult to get unsorted ;)

I am not adding any mess (ordering issues) to MAINTAINERS with this patch, 
other than what is already there, but cleaning that up is completely other 
story.
