What was the rationale for removing Adam from MAINTAINERS?

That should have been in the non-existent changelog.  Please always reissue
a complete changelog when resending any patch.

hm, linux-tr.net seems to be defunct.  So I guess that orphaning TMS380 is
appropriate, if Adam has left us.  Has he?

I don't know that specific answer, but in terms of general policy...

I wouldn't apply this patch until they have been in Documentation/people-removal-schedule.txt for a year or so ;-) More seriously, its not like MAINTAINERS is a mission critical correctness target -- so I think we can do a better job than just yanking people from the file like this.
