Subject: [PATCH net 04/11] MAINTAINERS: remove Salil Mehta from HiSilicon network drivers

From: Jakub Kicinski <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 3 Mar 2026 13:53:04 -0800

We have not seen tags from Salil for HiSilicon network drivers
in over 5 years. He is active upstream in other subsystems
(KVM/ARM64 vCPU hotplug). Jian Shen and Jijie Shao are active
in HNS3, and the review coverage is good (55%).
