[PATCH] MAINTAINERS: Update CXL, NVDIMM, DAX, and others for djbw

[PATCH] MAINTAINERS: Update CXL, NVDIMM, DAX, and others for djbw

[Dave Jiang]

Dan is no longer with us. Removing entries in MAINTAINERS to prevent
people from keep emailing his address.

async_tx will be essentially orphaned. There has been discussion of
deprecation for the feature on the dmaengine mailing list.

fsdax will no longer have a maintainer. But there are reviewers still
and Alison Schofield will continue to wrangle patches for DAX overall.

For FSDAX, Jan or Willy if you guys want to step up and be the
maintainer please let me know and I'll update the entry. Thanks.
