[PATCH] maintainers: remove olivier.matz@6wind.com

[Olivier Matz]

Unfortunatly I don't have enough time to undertake my maintainer role at
the expected level. It will probably not going to get better anytime
soon, so remove myself from maintainers.

Sorry to see you go.
Should start a CREDITS file to remember past maintainers?

It's always sad when a core contributor stop being active.
That's what happens in the long life of a project.
Thank you Olivier for the hard work since a very long time.
Your value in the project is huge.

Note: I am very grateful for the good foundations Olivier brought to DPDK
which helped making it a sustainable open project for the community.
This is what encouraged me to invest more time in DPDK.

We need to find many new maintainers now to continue this great work!

PS: We'll keep the magic number in EAL ;)

Thank you very much for your kind reactions.

About the CREDITS file, many people would deserve to have their name in
such a file. We already have the git history and the mail history, which
are forever engraved in the marble of the Internet :)

And... I'm not leaving the DPDK community, I'll definitely find some
time for a few reviews. I just want to have the MAINTAINERS file
reflecting the reality.
